Richards noted that the two positions filled by Meagan are supported by the federal Immigration and Career Training ministry, and said her position is to engage people with disabilities in meaningful jobs in the workforce. “The goal of the supportive employment program is that everybody who wants employment can attain a job if they have proper supports in place,” she said, going on to dispel misconceptions people have about who can or can’t be employed. McLeod pointed out there are outdated beliefs that people with disabilities can’t be employed meaningfully, or that workplaces would require expensive upgrades to adapt to someone with disabilities.
