disABLEDperson, Inc. announces new portal for college Grads with disabilities!
disABLEDperson, Inc. is a faith-based non-profit organization dedicated to helping people with disabilities find employment. This occurs through the www.disABLEDperson.com online recruitment program and through cooperative agreements with other mainstream employment services.  We are proud to announce the addition of our new service for students with disabilities who have or are close to obtaining a college degree. We are working alongside employers to secure job postings for these graduates.
www.disABLEDperson.com/grads will launch September 15, 2009.

To participate, please spread the word about our new service to the student disability population at your school, those graduating and alumni. Publishing a direct link to our site (on your website) would be beneficial in spreading the word to students.  Also, feel free to use the logo provided below.
Once students reach our site, they can register and post their resume.  NOTE:  It is important that they check the "College Graduate" box when posting their resume.
Thank you for spreading the word about this exciting new service.

Call us with any questions at 760-420-1269.

Regards,
Diana Corso
