Casmir Cares is also a member of the Philadelphia Employment Forum which is a gathering of representatives from the Philadelphia IDS employment provider agencies, the Supports Coordination Organizations (SCO), Office of Vocational Rehabilitation (OVR), and parents to promote employment and share information, ideas, and expertise. There continues to be a need to promote employment in order to avoid employment continuing to be a “back burner” issue. The Employment Forum meets every other month at various locations throughout the Philadelphia area.
The purpose of the Employment Forum is to promote the philosophy of work and employment for all individuals with disabilities within the Philadelphia area by exchanging information and facilitating communication between the employment forum and the community, influencing and shaping policies, and educating employers to the advantages of hiring people with disabilities.
