I have gotten into the habit of continually identifying myself before speaking during virtual meetings. There are team members unable to use video, and a variety of accessibility needs we be mindful of. #NDEAM #disabilitysymposium2020 #attitudeofaccessibility #disablethelabel

People with disabilities make up 18.7% of the working age population, yet almost 70% of those are unemployed. If you or a loved one is looking for employment resources be sure to look at our October #NDEAM Toolkit or call us at 1-800-3-AUTISM.

#CripCampFilm shows the power that the Independent Living movement brings to #PwD. With a promise to have a 51% majority disability-led staff, CILs are a perfect example of how important employment is for disabled people. We're happy to celebrate the 75th anniversary of #NDEAM!

One bright spot from that debate was remembering that @JoeBiden worked his entire life to overcome a stutter. Still does. He leads, and sets an example simply by being, for so many folks in this country. Kids and adults alike. It requires an elegant courage to do so in public ♥️
