Google Alert popped up another "gem". Puff piece coverage of a company that "gives jobs" to disabled adults.
- Abled founders speak, not a single disabled person interviewed.
- Stated that 80% disabled people are unemployed but didn't go into how many workplaces flout ADA, Sect 504 and Sect 508.
- No mention of whether it's a "sheltered workshop" and what disabled people are paid compared to what abled people are paid in the company.
