Our Thanks Goes to Employers Who Hire Disabled Workers

As we pause to reflect and give thanks this week, the team at NTI is particularly grateful to the many employer partners we engage to match people with disabilities with fulfilling work-from-home jobs.

“We know that hiring disabled workers makes good business sense, but some of our partners have gone above and beyond to show they truly value this often-overlooked segment of the workforce,” said Alan Hubbard, CEO of National Telecommuting Institute, a 25-year nonprofit that places disabled workers in remote positions. “These companies have made a significant difference not only in the life of the individual hired, but in changing perceptions about the abilities of these workers and stereotypes about disabled people at large.”

From the entire NTI family, we would like to thank our 25 current employer partners, including and especially:

• John Hancock
• Customer Lobby
• Five Star
• Keyword Connects
• VForce

Each year NTI places between 400 and 600 individuals with disabilities in both part-time and full-time positions at companies like these. Right now, we have more than 500 employees in 45 states across the country, and we still have more than 200 open positions available. Visit www.ntiathome.org for information on finding a remote position.

Have a happy and safe Thanksgiving.
