Event Venue - TechOWL Community Space, 1392 Cecil B. Moore Avenue
At 64 years old, Rich decided to unmask and disclose that he has OCD. He was prepared to talk about his neurodivergence and his history of mental illness but he was afraid of the names that people would call him. So, he called himself a Qiwid; a Qualified Individual with an Invisible Disability.
Join Rich as he talks about what it means to be qualified for a job, an individual, and invisibly disabled. Hear about his journey from isolation and depression to acceptance and enjoyment of his Comfort Job. You may leave wanting to be a Qiwid, too.
