A Success Story

Before Ricardo Auguste created a collection for Her Game 2, Stamford, CT, he created a plan. Working as an intern via On-the-Job Training, a program funded by Connecticut's Bureau of Rehabilitation Services. Today, Ricardo is living his dream as a fashion designer, while living with paraplegia.

At Connect-Ability, we focus on the ability of all. That includes employers.


There are many advantages for businesses who hire people with disabilities. Not only will a company be able to utilize the skills and superior qualifications of a very able worker; they will also achieve a more diverse workplace.

Here, you will find resources for recruiting and hiring people with disabilities, as well as ways to retain current employees who may acquire a disability in the future. The more you know, the more all will benefit. So, please, take your time and review the site.

Connect-Ability works to remove barriers that make it hard for job seekers with disabilities to find and keep jobs. Our role is to offer information, tools and technical assistance to job seekers and employers rather than provide direct job placement services.
