Each October, National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) celebrates the dedication, skill, and achievement of workers with disabilities while spotlighting the importance of expanding employment opportunities for people with disabilities in every field.

At The Coalition for the Preservation of Employment Choice, we believe that everyone deserves the right to pursue meaningful work, develop their talents, and contribute to their community. NDEAM serves as an important reminder that employment choice empowers individuals and strengthens our workforce as a whole.

This month, we celebrate:

  • The abilities and accomplishments of employees with disabilities across industries

  • The employers and organizations that open doors to rewarding work

  • The ongoing progress toward ensuring employment opportunities for people of all abilities

When every individual has the opportunity to participate in the workforce, communities grow stronger, businesses become more dynamic, and lives are transformed through the power of work.

We invite you to join us in recognizing National Disability Employment Awareness Month by sharing stories, supporting workforce development programs, and continuing to advocate for employment choice and opportunity for all.

The Coalition for the Preservation of Employment Choice is proud to stand alongside workers, families, and employers who value the dignity, independence, and purpose that meaningful employment brings.
