Disability Mentoring Day (DMD) events have been connecting young people with disabilities with career possibilities since Jonathan Young inaugurated the event "back in the day," during the Clinton Administration. If you live in New Jersey, here's what you need to know about the DMD events that will be taking place close to home on Wednesday, October 21, 2009. If you are an employer who wishes to welcome students with disabilities to your workplace, or a high school or college student who wants to learn more about New Jersey jobs that are attractive to someone with your skills, abilities, interests and talents, then you'll want to participate in this year's DMD events.
So far, DMD event sponsors include: Allies, Inc., PSE&G, BCN Telecom, Lawrence Toyota, All In One Basket, Bollinger Insurance and the Law Offices of Maniaci, Ciccotta & Schweizer.
In New Jersey, your DMD coordinating state agency is Allies, Inc.
Disability Mentoring Day is a free event open to all students with Disabilities in the State of New Jersey.
