Job opportunity in Chicago for people with acquired or progressive physical disabilities!! We are JUST the messenger!! To be fully transparent, we are not affiliated with UIC, Shirley Ryan Ability Lab, or the mENTER Research Project.
One of our co-stewards came across this position on ’s page and reached out to the contact person (the email address on the graphic, NOT DCAL) to ask a bunch of questions and figured it may be helpful to share with others, especially since they mentioned that they are looking for more applicants!!
We know, first hand, how difficult it can be to find work that meets our needs as disabled people in this violently capitalist society. Again, we are just the messengers, and we know how harmful and ableist academia, research, and even occupational therapists are capable of being. We’re just hopeful that this opportunity can be a tool to help someone amongst our people make it another day. 🫶🏽 (light brown skinned hands forming a heart emoji)
ALSO, additional info not mentioned in the graphic or the job description: the first 3 weeks are expected to include two half days of training per week, all in person. after then, most of the work is remote!
