Events

This event is intentionally designed to increase meaningful connection between neurodivergent job seekers and employers, while strengthening internship pathways through higher education partnerships. At the core of the event is a structured, practice-based employer–job seeker rotation, providing participants with supported opportunities to build confidence, refine communication skills, and form authentic professional connections. This approach reflects NENPHL’s focus on moving beyond surface-level networking toward relationships that support hiring, internships, and longer-term career alignment.

At EmpathyTech, we focus on making innovation more just, more inclusive, and more human. We work with people and organizations committed to creating solutions that matter, solutions that are shaped by empathy and built in collaboration with communities that have been historically left out of technological progress.

Together, we’re creating a new standard, one where lived experience informs design, where impact is measured by dignity and access, and where the future is built with everyone in mind.

A City of Inclusion is a city where all people with disabilities lead healthy and fulfilling lives as respected members of their communities. Using an approach driven through collective impact, Cities of Inclusion brings together community members, disability advocates, and leaders across the business, health, education, government, and nonprofit sectors to transform the way systems work together across a city to be more inclusive for all peoples with disabilities. Cities of Inclusion focuses on five core pillars of education, employment, health, housing, and access to information & services. Within each pillar, we identify how to make the systems people with disabilities navigate more accessible and better positioned to ensure individuals can access what they need to be successful.
