Workforce solutions firm Rangam, a Disability:IN-certified DOBE®, congratulated the Wisconsin team for their outstanding work in raising disability awareness and bringing valuable resources to help promote inclusive hiring in the region.
"I am super excited to see Disability:IN Wisconsin grow into what it is today," said Tracey Andrus, Rangam Executive Vice President of Strategy and Partnerships and a Member-at-Large on Disability:IN Wisconsin's Board of Directors. "I have had the privilege to work with each member and this recognition couldn't have come to a more deserving group of people who love what they do and do what they love—every day."
"Under the leadership of Executive Director Judy Quigley, Chair Derek Smith, and Vice Chair Tracy Glorioso, the Wisconsin team is passionate about helping people with disabilities find meaningful and rewarding career pathways. Since the inception of the affiliate in 2018, the team has demonstrated an excellent understanding of the unique skills and abilities individuals with disabilities bring to the workplace," Tracey added.

"The DOBE® certification from Disability:IN means so much to Rangam and SourceAbled. More and more companies are looking to work with DOBE®s on a priority basis, which gives us an opportunity to expand our business and make a wider contribution to improving DE&I in the workplace. As a DOBE®, we are able to give back to the disability and autism community in ways that would not have otherwise been possible.
