Blazin’ BBQ Ribhouse in Chatham is being recognized this week for being an inclusive employer.
A celebration is being held at the restaurant at 435 St. Clair St. on Thursday from 12pm until 2pm and those attending will get a free pulled pork sandwich.
October is Disability Employment Awareness Month and Blazin' BBQ is being honoured for hiring people with disabilities.
Goodwill Connections Program says "Blazin' BBQ has been a local champion by providing jobs that have helped its participants acquire skills, reach their goals and build natural supports."
Goodwill officials add that "this business has been an inspiration and a leader in inclusion and has contributed to the overall goal of strengthening inclusion in our community and truly changing people’s lives through the power of work."
