About Us

Understood can help you build a stronger, more equitable, and more inclusive workplace. People with disabilities add value to the workplace in immeasurable ways, but if the workplace culture isn’t welcoming and supportive, they won’t thrive. Creating a culture of support—by raising and building awareness, embracing flexibility, making them feel welcome by showing that support is offered freely—will help them reach their full potential. And it will help create a more engaged and effective workforce because these supports will help ALL employees, not just those with disabilities.

Through our robust offerings, which include workplace assessment and action planning and on-demand and virtual training, we help build workplaces that embrace difference, foster disability inclusion, and allow people with all types of disabilities—including learning and thinking differences—to thrive.
