As part of the National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) webinars, we have recorded sessions on a number of related topics. We will be hosting a live question and answer session for anyone who would like to speak with City staff about these topics.    

Pre-Recorded Webinar topics include money management; how to search for affordable, accessible and available housing in the City of Boston; and workers rights. Watch these pre-recorded webinars using the links below, and if you have questions please register for the upcoming NDEAM Webinar Q&A on November 4. 

• Financial Empowerment for People with Disabilities: This webinar is an opportunity for people with disabilities to learn about free financial wellness resources that the City of Boston has available for you and your family. Including help building credit, finding free banking options, and free tax preparation, come learn how we can help you on your financial journey. In addition, learn about disability specific savings accounts called ABLE accounts.
• Finding Affordable, Available, Accessible Housing: Finding housing can be incredibly difficult. This webinar will include information on accessible housing - what features are included in "accessible" or "ADA" housing units including mobility or sensory units. It will also include information about how to search for accessible and affordable housing and how housing "lotteries" work.
• Know Your Employment Rights: Workers in the City of Boston face many injustices: wage theft, discrimination, unsafe or unhealthy working conditions and more. Regardless of immigration status, workers have legal protections about which many are unaware.  When workers know their rights, they are able to exercise those rights.  In partnership with the City's Office of Labor Policy and Worker Protections, this webinar will give an overview of these legal protections with a focus on the rights of workers with disabilities.
