Help Us Recognize inclusive employers
Shopability is a campaign designed to recognize businesses across Jacksonville that employ individuals with Autism, Down syndrome and other intellectual and developmental differences (IDDs).
We are in the process of creating a searchable, interactive map to identify the hundreds of companies in our area who offer employment and internship opportunities to our neighbors with IDDs. We want to make it easy to locate and support these businesses. But we need YOUR help in reaching our goal of identifying every inclusive employer in Jax!

BUSINESS LISTING
If you don't see your favorite inclusive business represented, make sure to submit a business listing by January 15, 2021.
JOB SEEKER
Connect with local nonprofits who help individuals with IDDs find tailored employment opportunities.
