Celebrate National Disability
Employment Awareness Month
Download Past NDEAM Posters
Are you ready for National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM)? Held every October, NDEAM is a fitting time to educate about disability employment issues and celebrate the many and varied contributions of America’s workers with disabilities. The 2025 NDEAM theme will be “Celebrating Value and Talent,” and as part of the lead up to America’s 250th anniversary in 2026, this year’s observance will highlight the achievements of Americans with disabilities both past and present.
NDEAM is led by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP), but its true spirit lies in the many observances held at the grassroots level across the nation every year. The Campaign for Disability Employment encourages organizations of all sizes and in all industries to participate in NDEAM.
For specific ideas on supporting NDEAM, visit the website www.dol.gov/ndeam. Suggestions range from simple, such as displaying the (soon to be released) 2025 poster, to comprehensive, such as implementing a disability education program. How ever you choose to take part, you’ll be playing an important role in fostering a strong workforce, one where every person is recognized for his or her abilities—every day of every month.
Stay tuned to learn more, and start thinking now about ways to incorporate the 2025 NDEAM theme into your own activities this fall!
