This is where the CUAEL project comes in. The CUAEL project was launched in May 2018 as an initiative that helps students with disabilities excel in their careers and build on the monumental contributions people with disabilities make to society. The program aims to bridge the gap between education and the workforce, transforming skillsets developed at Carleton into employment opportunities. Through the CUAEL program, Mohamed is working with Community First: Impacts of Community Engagement (CFICE) as an administrative research assistant on campus.
