October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM)!🎉

This year’s theme, “Celebrating Value and Talent,” highlights the skills, contributions, and potential of workers with disabilities and the importance of creating inclusive workplaces where everyone has the opportunity to succeed.

👏 Myron is putting his skills to work by doing laundry for Georgia State’s Recreation Center Competitive Sports division. Through opportunities like this, our IDEAL students gain hands-on work experience, develop valuable job skills, and contribute to their campus community.

Inclusive workplaces are stronger when everyone has the opportunity to contribute!
