"Disclosing Hidden Disability During the Interview; Ethical Considerations"

Presenter: John Sassin, M.A., CRC

Date: Feb. 6th 2008

Synopsis:

The decision to disclose a disability during the interview for a person with disability is complex and challenging. If a person discloses, they run the risk of discrimination. If a person doesn't disclose they will not have the protection of the Americans with Disability ACT and may not be eligible for the very accommodations needed to be successful. John Sassin's presentation explores the complexities of making the decision to disclose or not.
