South Carolina AgrAbility Needs Assessment for SC Farmers and Agribusiness Owners

The South Carolina AgrAbility Teams is conducting a needs assessment. The survey will help them understand the specific challenges that farmers and their employees with disabilities face in the workplace. The team’s vision is to improve quality of life for farmers, ranchers, and other agricultural workers with disabilities, so that they, their families, and their communities continue to succeed in rural America.

If you are 18 or older, you're invited to take this survey. Follow the link in the button below for more details and to see if you qualify! Those who qualify to take the survey will be entered into a drawing for one of ten $50 Amazon gift cards.

What is AgrAbility and why is Able SC a partner?

Our partnership with Clemson University and South Carolina State University has brought AgrAbility, a national initiative, to South Carolina! We offer training and technical assistance to University staff and partners on how to make the agriculture career field accessible for people with disabilities and create more opportunities for people with disabilities in farming.
