In light of International Day of People with Disabilities, we are delighted to share this story from uLaunch, an AKG business.

Maria has overcome mental health challenges to take on a new role.

As it is International Day of People with Disability this week, we are reflecting on some of the achievements of our participants.

Next up is Maria - a young woman who has faced ongoing mental health challenges but is showing incredible determination to overcome them.

She recently achieved a major milestone: 26 weeks of employment in a role she enjoys. Even more remarkably, she has maintained her mental health and avoided hospitalisation for over six months, highlighting her resilience and commitment.
