In-Person Event

Powering the possible with neurodiversity

CAI and the Eagles Autism Foundation are hosting an exclusive in-person event at Lincoln Financial Field. We would like to personally invite you and a guest to the “Powering the possible with neurodiversity” symposium.

Friday, May 19, 2023

2:00 – 5:00 PM ET

Firstrust Bank Club at Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia, PA

The “Powering the possible with neurodiversity” symposium will feature neurodiversity employment programs, thought leaders, and advocates who will share their own journeys and the importance of workplace inclusion.

At CAI, we partner with like-minded organizations like you who are committed to continuing to remove job barriers and increasing neurodiversity hiring in the workplace– together.

According to the CDC, the prevalence of autism spectrum disorder has increased to 1 in 36 children aged 8 in the U.S.¹ Together, we can play an influential role in empowering the next generation of neurodiverse talent by increasing awareness of neurodiversity in the workplace, building a more inclusive workforce, and creating long-lasting careers for neurodivergent individuals.
