Imagine a workforce where everyone belongs. The Victor Wear Expo connects disabled and neurodiverse talent to opportunity. 

Keynote Speaker: Dr. Temple Grandin: Great Minds Are Not All the Same

Experience an inspiring celebration of disability employment and neurodiverse talent, taking place at a moment when inclusion needs champions more than ever. As DEI programs face pushback and harmful narratives gain attention, this event offers a powerful reminder that inclusion is not only right—it’s smart, sustainable, and transformative.
