Power Inclusive Hiring in the Rio Grande Valley
​
In 2025, your support helped turn inclusion into action across Hidalgo, Starr, and Cameron Counties through RGV H.I.R.E.S., creating real connections among employers, community resources, and job seekers of all abilities.
 
Here’s what your partnership made possible in 2025:
300+ job seekers connected to opportunity at RGV H.I.R.E.S. Hidalgo County
40+ inclusive employers and service agencies engaged
On-site mock interviews that built confidence and opened doors
Real-time résumé support in our Cyber Café, helping candidates show up job-ready
​
Disability employment is improving, but gaps remain—and the Rio Grande Valley can lead the way. Inclusion isn’t charity. It’s a talent strategy. Most accommodations cost little or nothing, and inclusive workplaces consistently report stronger retention, performance, and culture.
 
Your donation fuels what works.
 
When you give to DCC-RGV, you power:
Job seeker readiness (résumé help, interview prep, navigation support)
Employer training (inclusive hiring, accommodations, ADA readiness)
Accessible innovation (tools and tech that increase independence and productivity)
More opportunity across all counties—so the Valley moves forward together
 
Invest in possibility. 
Please help us expand RGV H.I.R.E.S. and grow inclusive employment across South Texas in 2026.
