#DisabilityPrideMonth is celebrated each July, commemorating the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The ADA is the landmark legislation, passed in July 1990, that broke down barriers to inclusion for individuals with disabilities in society. Disability Pride Month celebrates people with disabilities, promotes their visibility in society, amplifies their voices, raises awareness, and encourages #inclusion. #LittlerCelebrates https://bit.ly/4bNLPG0

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was created in July 1990. Every July recognizes the month as an opportunity to celebrate the achievements, landmarks, successes, and even the struggles, of those in the disability community. Here are some ways you can become an ally and celebrate and support those with disabilities: *Educate yourself on the significance of the disability rights movement. *Promote accessibility in the workplace, public spaces, schools, etc. *Amplify voices of individuals with disabilities by sharing stories/perspectives. *Advocate for change and support policies and initiatives for disability rights. *Celebrate achievements and accomplishments of individuals with disabilities in all areas of life (work, sports, art, education, etc). Let's create a space where everyone, regardless of ability, can thrive and reach their full potential.
Happy Disability Pride Month!

Did you know that 1 in 6 individuals worldwide live with a disability? In the U.S., this accounts for approximately 44 million adults. This is a very large number of our colleagues, family and friends. These are people who also: - Are less likely to complete an undergraduate degree. - Are unemployed at rates 3.7% higher than workers without a disability. - Are more than twice as likely as non-disabled individuals to work only part-time. - Tend to earn approximately 43% less. Because there is so much we can do as business owners, leaders and advocates to empower change, we have provided some thoughtful insights this Disability Pride Month to help you and your team take intentional action. #DisabilityPrideMonth #TriNetBlog #TriNetDEI #DisabilityPride #InclusiveWorkplace #Inclusivity Dafni LeFlore, CPA

Did you know that July is Disability Pride Month? Disability Pride Month started in 1990, soon after the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law on July 26, 1990. This month is dedicated to honoring the journeys, achievements, and challenges faced by individuals with disabilities, whether those disabilities are visible or not. My Employment Options, as advocates of diversity and inclusion, remains dedicated to assisting job seekers with disabilities in securing meaningful employment, not just in July but throughout the year. #DisabilityPrideMonth #DisabilityPride #InclusionMatters #ADA #DisabilityAwareness #DisabilityInclusion #RepresentationMatters
