HLAAKC announces that the Greater Kansas City Business Leadership Network has a new way for job seekers with disabilities, including hearing loss to apply for jobs. A HLAAKC member attended a SHIFT meeting and learned there are employers who are looking for employees with disabilities, including those with hearing loss. SHIFT helps match employers with SHIFT registered job-seekers who happen to have a disability. During the meeting, HLAAKC explained how people with hearing loss can have several different phone numbers, such as InnoCaptions and Sorenson, but you can simply mark your phone numbers in preference of how you like to be contacted without disclosing it is a service for deaf or hard-of-hearing. SHIFT is an exciting tool we hope you are thrilled. Please send us feedback at hlaakc@gmail.com, so we can spread the news.
