Everyone deserves the opportunity for great employment options – regardless of their disabilities. The Coalition Forward helps supply local businesses with the help they need, while helping individuals with disabilities lead more productive and fulfilling lives.
Every month the Coalition Forward brings together employers and service providers. Employers talk about their job openings and service providers ask questions on behalf of the individuals they work with. Meetings are held the third Thursday of each month at McDowell Center (8412 Westport Rd, Louisville, KY 40242) from 9am-10am and can be attended in person or virtually. A meeting link with the agenda is emailed out every Monday before the meeting. To be added to the email list, contact [email protected].

You Talked. We Listened.
We’ve met with providers throughout the state to learn about their challenges and successes. Based on this feedback from each of you, we are excited to offer two different virtual groups to connect with and support providers and employers throughout the state.
Just Us League!
The provider group will meet the first Friday of each month, from 12pm to 1pm (EST) via Zoom to discuss issues specific to providers in an informal, chat based, problem solving environment.
Employer Info Session
Meetings are held on the last Friday of each month from 12pm-1pm (EST). It is a forum for questions from new employers and guidance from seasoned Coalition employers.
