With the steady recovery of tourism and the challenge to recruit and retain staff for hospitality businesses, the ever-ready community of adults with disabilities is an untapped resource.

Hear from a panel of experts in this space, moderated by Lakshmee Lachhman-Persad, NYC & Company Board Member and Founder of AccessibleTravelNYC.com, and Peter Slatin, Founder of The Slatin Group, slatingroup.com.
