About EARN
EARN has information and resources to help employers, HR professionals and diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) staff create workplaces that are inclusive of people with disabilities.
The Employer Assistance and Resource Network on Disability Inclusion (EARN) offers information and resources to help organizations of all sizes recruit, hire, retain, and advance people with disabilities; build inclusive workplace cultures; and meet diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) goals.
AskEARN.org offers a range of employer-focused resources on topics including recruiting and hiring people with disabilities, creating inclusive workplaces, reasonable accommodations, and encouraging employees with disabilities to self-identify. EARN also hosts quarterly webinars for employers on topics related to workplace disability inclusion. To stay up-to-date on the latest news and trends in workplace diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility issues, subscribe to our monthly newsletter, and follow EARN on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube.
EARN also offers a suite of free, self-paced online trainings on each segment of the Inclusion@Work Framework for Building a Disability-Inclusive Organization, which outlines seven core components of a disability-inclusive workplace, along with a menu of strategies for achieving them, and other topics.
