Building Inclusive Communities and Cultures through Disability Diversity in the Workplace

Virginia Ability

Virginia Ability is a non-profit association focused on improving employment outcomes for people with disabilities. We Educate businesses on the proven benefits of hiring qualified individuals with disabilities to their organization, Cultivate business and community employment resource partnerships to

connect workforce talent with job opportunities, and Empower businesses to make a positive and lasting impact on Virginia’s workforce and economy.


Employers must be engaged in and champion cutting-edge disability recruitment and hiring strategies, not as charity or marketing, but because it’s smart business.


We offer programs on disability inclusion, leadership strategies, best practices, business success stories, overcoming challenges, and much more. Join us to meet and network with other Virginia employers to share best practices for recruiting, hiring and supporting diverse talent in the workplace.
