Renata Cordeiro
I have been employed by Ability Beyond Disability since November 2000. I am proud to work at an agency with such a great mission. Knowing that the work we do impacts so many people's lives in so many ways...nothing is more rewarding than that. Since I started working at this agency, I have been given the opportunity to work in a couple of different roles, where I have learned so many things. Having the privilege of working with so many devoted individuals has made me feel like I have grown tremendously-- both personally and professionally. I hope to be here for many years to come, and I am sure that I will continue to learn and grow. Ability Beyond Disability is definitely my employer of choice.

As a college student at Western Connecticut State University, I first heard of Ability Beyond Disability through many of my classmates who were happily employed by (and highly recommended) the organization. I was working in retail at the time, and I was looking for a job that would be more fulfilling- something more meaningful and rewarding, that would also accomodate my college schedule. I was drawn to the mission and excited to work directly with the consumers. I also liked the idea of having a job that would make an impact on people's lives. It was not long after I began working here that it was clear that the consumers were the ones making an impact on my life. I truly feel blessed to be part of a tremendous effort in improving the quality of life of the people we serve.

After spending almost two decades in corporate America, I wanted to do something that would make me feel like I was "giving back"; Ability Beyond Disability has given me that opportunity. My experience with the organization has truly been an eye-opening one, in many aspects. Upon joining Ability Beyond Disability, I was both excited and hesitant, because I was not sure that I was cut out to do this type of work. I believe that it truly takes a special person to work with individuals with disabilities, and I wasn't sure I was the one for it. It only took me three weeks to realize that Ability Beyond Disability is where I am meant to be, and now I genuinely have a passion for working with people with disabilities.
