Marlene Sallo of the National Disability Rights Network (NDRN) | accessiBe's Spotlight Sessions

Welcome to our Spotlight Sessions, a series dedicated to conversations with change-makers and people that have made an impact on the community of people with disabilities.
In this episode, we had the opportunity to speak with Marlene Sallo, Executive Director of the National Disability Rights Network (NDRN), a nonprofit membership organization for the federally mandated Protection and Advocacy (P&A) Systems and the Client Assistance Programs (CAP) for individuals with disabilities.
Marlene shared thoughts on the following topics:
1. How the NDRN works across the country.

3. The impact of COVID on the disability workforce.
4. How technology empowers people with disabilities to become independent.
