October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month, or “NDEAM,” where we celebrate the value that workers with disabilities add to our workplaces and economy. NDEAM’s purpose is to confirm our commitment to ensuring workers who have a disability have access to good jobs and the services to support those jobs. These services, like job development, job coaching, and follow-up services are all of which the HH Employment Services team provides. That’s the spirit behind this year’s official theme: “Access to Good Jobs for All." https://ow.ly/SxVv50TAucY Interested in partnering with HH's Employment Services Team? Please contact Jim Tabor, Director of Employment Services at James.Tabor@helpinghand-il.org. #NDEAM #DisabilityEmployment #EmploymentServices #WorkplaceDiversity
