EEOC/OHREP Know Your Rights

All of our happenings provide an opportunity for our community to come together and share with each other resources that we've found helpful. When a community gathers, an amazing thing happens: its members build each other up and help the whole network to get stronger. Join us, be strengthened, and strengthen others!

Join the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) for a Know Your Rights presentation focused on workplace protections under federal EEO laws with an emphasis on the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). This accessible session will discuss reasonable accommodations in the workplace and will explain how individuals can seek assistance from the EEOC if they’re experiencing employment discrimination.
