The National Jury of Elections (JNE) signed an interinstitutional cooperation agreement to promote the labor market inclusion of young people with different abilities from the Ann Sullivan Center of Peru in a ceremony held at its head office.

"This agreement is unique because two students of CASP will be our coworkers at the National Jury of Elections,” said Dr. Francisco Tavara Córdova, president of this constitutional organism.

This agreement states that two young students with different abilities from CASP will soon be incorporated to work in the electoral organism, and the Supported Employment Program of CASP will be implemented at the JNE.

Dr. Liliana Mayo, founder and general director of the Ann Sullivan Center of Peru, expressed that it is a historic day for CASP because young people with different abilities will be able to show their value as human beings and workers.

In addition, she added that this initiative of the JNE should be spread all over the world so that these kinds of electoral organisms in other countries follow the suit. "The National Jury of Elections has a big heart," he said.
