Hire Autism welcomes eight talented volunteers joining Hire Autism as navigators. Congratulations to Lavanya Nayar, Laura Maltz, Kerrie Barry, Meenakshy Kavassery, Tamara Green, Stephanie Sutton, Laila Vasquez, and Alexis Clements!
These volunteers come from various personal and professional backgrounds, holding positions such as special education teacher, practice manager, administrative assistant, and trial attorney.
Hire Autism navigators help equip job seekers with the tools necessary to independently take on the job search and meet their employment goals. They use their professional experience and expertise to help job seekers refine their resumes and cover letters and polish their interview skills.
Max, a recent job seeker, said this about his experience working with a navigator: “Massive thanks for the services. It was easily the best experience and charity I had with autism-related job searching. Would recommend to anybody I know on the spectrum.”
Are you or someone you know interested in mentoring autistic job seekers? Apply for our October 2024 navigator cohort. Applications will be accepted until Friday, October 4, 2024, at 11:59 p.m. ET.
If you have questions about the Navigator Program or other volunteer opportunities, contact the Hire Autism team at mail@hireautism.org
