Principal theory is that employers may view these students as dishonest, work with students on this narrative. Need to be honest up front on the application. Understand and empower them to move beyond the stigma. 

There are some protections but it is always best to answer honestly. 

Work with students and young adults to overcome the negative perception people/employers may have. 

Do youth and young adults that are incarcerated receive a quality education?

Great teams don't happen by accident. They are because of intentional work. It is important that we work to build a culture of understanding and empathy. We work for each other and strive to put others first. 

Being productive in a remote setting requires intentionality. It goes beyond a check list - you must focus on setting and personal well being. 

Working in a remote setting it is important to know your work style and incorporate that into your day. I like the idea of adding routines into the day to help stay on track and stay focused. 

We must be aware of our bias when working with individuals with disabilities. Allow students with disabilities the opportunity to succeed without our limits being placed on them. 

Supporting individuals with disabilities is important for the community. Helping these individuals engage in the community help with the overall health. 

Key take away is don't go it alone. Use those experts within the organization to help determine the accommodations that are reasonable.
