Description
Learn how, at the very beginnings of the COVID-19 pandemic, one nonprofit turned to non-traditional tourism funding sources to promote inclusive travel for the autism and sensory-sensitive community, put families on the road to otherwise empty hotels and managed to pivot in a way that paid the salaries of and leveraged the knowledge of their existing team.
This partnership between DMOs, advocacy agencies and travelers has turned into a win-win-win. How can you think creatively to access new funding sources while promoting inclusive travel opportunities?
