Question and Answer Style Interviews with National & State Level Leaders
The Georgia Council on Developmental Disabilities (GCDD) has long advocated for inclusion of individuals with disabilities in workplaces throughout communities in Georgia. There are many employment programs and resources intended to provide employment assistance for Georgians, but the trick is to find them and then be able to figure out how to use them. For the Fall 2012 Making a Difference magazine, GCDD reached out to leaders on the national level, Sharon Lewis, the commissioner of the Administration on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (AIDD) and on the state level, Frank Berry, commissioner of the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD), and Greg Schmieg, executive director of the Georgia Vocational rehabilitation Agency (GVRA). The following questions and answer style interviews will help you understand the employment opportunities available within your community.
