Blind but Not Incapable: A New Vision for Employment Did you know that only 1 in 4 blind adults in the U.S. are employed? Too many talented blind individuals are overlooked, and that’s a missed opportunity for all of us. At ABLLE, we’re driven by a deep commitment to the blind community and believe we can fill the gap by: ✔️ Make hiring accessible - from the job postings to the interview process ✔️ Embrace workplace flexibility - from alternative schedules to remote and hybrid work ✔️ Educate and empower teams - from unconscious bias training to inclusive communications ✔️ Ensure equal opportunities for career growth - from talent identification to mentorship and executive leadership programs These are the four corners of the foundation we help every organization build for a disability-inclusive workplace and workforce. What corners of the disability inclusion foundation do companies struggle with the most? What corners do you think have the biggest impact? Would love to hear your thoughts in the comments! #Hiring #Employment #Talent #DisabilityJobs #InclusiveLeadership #Blind #ABLLE

It’s working… That’s how I feel about things right now. They’re working. Business. Health. Life. Family. (Well this needs some work) I’m a single dad and my relationship with my kiddo hasn’t been stronger… But family is and will continue to be a focus for me. Just like with business, life, and health, the success I create in my family starts and ends with me. And across all 4 categories, I believe looking back, I’ll be proud of what I’ve done. The conversations about Pokémon, Bluey, and Gabby that mean nothing now but mean everything in 20 years. The skipping in the parking lot, making fart noises, and everything that makes her laugh for free. The pushing her to do homework, cuddling on the couch, and telling her the truth. Every day, this relationship, my family starts and ends with me. Every day, my business, my health, my life starts and ends with me. And every day adds up. Make me smile in the comments with an area you’re struggling with, needs to be better, or what you will commit to every day in 2025… Your partner in pushing #ThingsTannerSays #Founder #Family #Leadership #Accountability

When we think about accessibility, it becomes clear that it means something different to everyone. For some, it’s about the basics—ramps, wide doorways, and enough space to move freely and comfortably. For others, information is made accessible through visual aids like Braille, screen readers, or large print. For some, it’s about sound, sensory accommodations, or even practical details like spacious restrooms and accessible parking that make them feel truly at ease. Accessibility is personal. It’s not one-size-fits-all. The more we understand and embrace these differences, the more inclusive our world becomes. What does accessibility mean to you? How can we create spaces that are accessible to everyone?
