ADAPTABLE SKILLS AND FLEXIBLE CAREERS FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES


Lori Becker, CEO of the Starkloff Disability Institute in Missouri, is also a graduate of the Starkloff Career Academy.

She has seen firsthand how vocational training can leverage transferable skills.

“Every disability is unique and has different impacts on the body,” she says.

“I’m legally blind.

Our chief financial officer has congenital muscular dystrophy [CMD].

The great thing is that there are plenty of vocations that are not the typical carpenter or electrician.”
