October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month
 
In May, the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Disability Employment Policy unveiled the official theme for October's National Disability Employment Awareness Month- "Talent Has No Boundaries: Workforce Diversity INCLUDES Workers With Disabilities."

Please share with NCARF what you are doing to celebrate or otherwise promote National Disability Employment Awareness Month.  We will compile the responses received over the next few weeks and provide a summary at the NCARF Annual Training Conference at the end of September.  Tell us about things you've done in the past that have worked and new ideas that you may be trying for the first time this year.
Email responses to meggleston@firstpointresources.com.
