AbilityLinks 10 Year Anniversary Celebration and Business Leader Breakfast Forum

Anikto is proud to endorse AbilityLinks, a job opportunity website for workers with disabilities and inclusive employers. This initiative from Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital is celebrating a decade of providing networking opportunities and career placement services.

To help celebrate its ten year anniversary, AbilityLinks invites everyone to attend a Business Leaders Breakfast on Thursday, October 13 2011. The program will feature industry leaders discussing their organizational strategies for including persons with disabilities, activating markets spanning employees, customers, hiring companies and job market analysts.

With a 54 million person demographic, people with disabilities represent a growing and significant segment of our population.

Clay Broussard of PepsiCo will be delivering the Keynote, followed by a panel discussion moderated by Scott Hoesman, President of The Kaleidoscope Group.
