The National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) is a nationwide campaign held throughout the month of October that raises awareness about disability employment issues and celebrates the contributions of America’s workers with disabilities, past and present. Not only does it recognize the contributions of people with disabilities, this event also recognizes employers or businesses who employ people with disabilities.
The 2022 NDEAM Event will be held at the Best Western Ramkota and offers a half day of educational and inspiring sessions, and includes lunch. For only $50 you can attend any or all of the offered opportunities on the schedule. Sponsorship for a table of 8 is $300.
