CRISPESH webinar – Launch of new guide for more inclusive workspaces
In French with simultaneous translation into English
Wednesday June 12, 2024 from 12:00 – 1:00
Zoom
CRISPESH, in collaboration with researchers Marjorie聽D茅sormeaux-Moreau from Universit茅 de Sherbrooke and Isabelle Courcy from Universit茅 de Montr茅al, invites you to the launch of a guide that aims to make workplaces more inclusive, by providing tools to facilitate聽neuromixed聽communication, particularly between autistic and allistic (non-autistic) individuals.
Numerous studies underline the fact that communication-related challenges聽represent聽a major obstacle to job retention for聽autistic聽people. Such challenges can also limit their access to certain opportunities for career advancement, as well as their potential and their contribution to the organization. This innovative guide is based on the idea that all parties involved have a role to play in fostering communication. It aims to provide tools to聽allistic people – be they employers, supervisors, trainees, consultants,聽collaborators聽or others – so that they can actively contribute to creating more inclusive work environments conducive to the access and retention of聽autistic聽people in the workplace.
The launch聽will聽begin with聽a聽presentation聽of the guide followed by聽a question-and-answer session with the audience.
The development of the guide was made possible thanks to a grant from the聽minist猫re聽de聽l’Emploi聽et de la聽Solidarit茅 sociale.聽SPHERE (Soutien 脿 la Personne Handicap茅e En Route vers l’Emploi) was commissioned by the Ministry to manage the call for projects.聽A working committee of seven autistic members, two allistic聽researchers and one autistic researcher, played an essential role in the creation of the guide.
