National Disability Employment Awareness Month

Blind youngsters display ability before Senate Committee. Washington, D.C. April 9, 1937

In October, Americans observe National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) by paying tribute to the accomplishments of the men and women with disabilities whose work helps keep the nation’s economy strong and by reaffirming their commitment to ensure equal opportunity for all citizens.

This effort to educate the public about the issues related to disability and employment began in 1945, when Congress declared the first week of October each year as National Employ the Physically Handicapped Week. In 1962, the word “physically” was removed to acknowledge the employment needs and contributions of individuals with all types of disabilities. Some 25 years later, Congress expanded the week to a month and changed the name to National Disability Employment Awareness Month.

America’s Recovery: Powered by Inclusion

The theme for NDEAM 2021, “America’s Recovery: Powered by Inclusion,” reflects the importance of ensuring people with disabilities have full access to employment and community involvement during the national recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. National Disability Employment Awareness Month helps to give a voice to people with disabilities in the workplace. Please join us to celebrate National Disability Employment Awareness Month. Learn how you can support NDEAM by visiting Office of Disability Employment Policy Website.
