From Free Rein Associates and Life Strategies comes the Diversity Disconnect Podcast. Tasked with exploring the helping and hindering factors in job acquisition and employment maintenance for underrepresented groups, the research team spent six months speaking with residents in the rural communities of Agassiz, Hope, Merritt, Ashcroft, and Princeton, British Columbia. This limited series explores the findings of the Diversity Disconnect research and examines the 20 factors that influence employment success for Indigenous Peoples and persons with disabling conditions.
