National Disability Employment Awareness Month
October was National Disability Employment Awareness Month! This month recognizes the importance of inclusion in the workplace and making sure that people with disabilities have full access to employment and community involvement. This is especially essential during the COVID-19 pandemic as people with disabilities have been disproportionately impacted.
Employers, organizations, agencies, and individuals can all have an impact on making our places of work more accessible. For more about what you can do and how you can continue to celebrate Disability Employment Awareness, visit the website for the U.S. Office of Disability Employment Policy.
