NDEAM Op-Eds
During this National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM), our DS Ambassadors used their voices to spread awareness, advocate for disability employment, and showcase the talents that individuals with Down Syndrome bring to the workforce. We invite you to check out their op-eds and join us in celebrating the contributions of workers with disabilities during NDEAM and beyond.
