• Now more than ever, as employers in the manufacturing, distribution, and supply chain sectors struggle to fill job vacancies.
• By rethinking hiring practices and diversifying the workforce to include neuro-diverse individuals within the hiring process, these shortages can be alleviated.
  
• The Town of Islip in collaboration with IgniteLI, will host a panel discussion presenting the many benefits for hiring a member of Long Island's Autistic population, and help solve these staffing challenges.
• The panel discussion will highlight vocational and employment training programs, payroll reimbursement and tax credit incentives for employers.
