Think Beyond the Label

About Think Beyond the Label tbtl_partnerlogo

Think Beyond the Label (TBTL) is a national campaign that is committed to making the business case for employing people with disabilities because it makes good business sense. Along with forty other states, New Hampshire has joined the campaign that targets businesses and provides expert tools and resources to businesses looking to evolve their workforce.

Around the state of New Hampshire (nhletsworktogether.org), area agencies, and other partners, will be partnering in the national campaign, developing and sharing information geared to businesses by identifying the financial incentives and key employer considerations when employing people with disabilities.  Relevant marketing materials are available for download from this website on the page For Employers and on the Marketing Tools page in the section WE ARE SUCCESS.
