Work can be hard to come by for people with intellectual disabilities and/or autism. Some studies have found that the unemployment rate for adults with autism⁠ is about 85 percent⁠.  Another survey finds that about a third of people with ⁠Down syndrome⁠ are unemployed. On this episode of A Valid Podcast four people share their stories of work and why it's important.

This is the final episode in A Valid Podcast Season 4, which is focused on employment.
