Do you dread the performance appraisal process? If you do, you are not alone. Next to letting someone go, the performance appraisal is rated as the least liked job of a manager. Most people I work with do not enjoy the performance review process and…

Thanks for the information.. I was aware of many of them but didn't have the correct information.

Do you know who I can contact for sponsorship for this program or where I can apply for grants?

As you know people with disabilities do not have the same opportunities in the workplace that everyone else has. So if they want tro start their own business they don't have the credit to qualify for loans through the normal channels through banks or the SBA. Also starting a business is not an easy task. Today , more and more people are going into business for themselves due to the direction our economy is going.

I am active in the disability community because I have CP--and experienced therse issues personally since I entered the workforce 12 years before ADA became law. I knew how to think outside the box and create opportunities for myself. I needed a program like I'm setting up to help me when I started my business 25 years ago.

What I propose to do is have people available to help clients with putting together a business plan, financial plan, plus help with where to market and decide what niche they want to fill. There are no grants available if you're a for profit business, plus AAPD only gives out 5 grants a year with more than 300 applicants. I want to set the program with a low interest loan program to be opaid back plus have the individual also mentor someone else just starting out after they build their business. The College of NJ had a networking event on October 2,2008 called Abilities Matter: Entreprepreneurs With Disabilities--so there is a recognition that programs like the one I'm setting up is needed.

I'm looking for sponsorship because I need to replace the funds I used to get the name registered and start the 501(c)3 process because those were funds given to me to be used for rent only from the DOT because I was displaced from where I was living. I'm looking for board members who can help with grant writing and securing grants.
