National Disability Employment Awareness Month
Message from Inroads to Opportunities President & CEO Angela Calzone
National Disability Employment Awareness Month
I wanted to take a moment to highlight the significance of National Disability Employment Month. This month, we come together to recognize and celebrate the incredible talents, skills, and contributions of individuals with disabilities in the workforce. It's a time to reaffirm our commitment to inclusivity, diversity, and equal opportunities for all.
At Inroads to Opportunities, we firmly believe that diversity is our strength, and that includes embracing and empowering our colleagues with disabilities. We understand that disability is not a barrier, but rather a unique perspective that adds value to our team and enriches our workplace culture.
This month, let's reflect on the following:
1. Equal Opportunities: We are committed to providing equal opportunities for every program participant, regardless of their abilities. We recognize the unique talents that individuals with disabilities bring to our organization.
2. Inclusivity: Inclusivity isn't just a buzzword; it's a guiding principle. We strive to create an inclusive workplace where everyone feels respected, valued, and supported in their professional journey.
3. Breaking Down Barriers: National Disability Employment Month reminds us of the importance of breaking down barriers to employment. Together, we can pave the way for a more accessible and equitable future.
4. Advocate for Change: As a leader, I encourage each of you to become advocates for change, both within and outside our organization. Let's foster a culture of understanding and support for individuals with disabilities.
5. Celebrate Achievements: Take a moment to celebrate the remarkable achievements of our colleagues with disabilities. Their resilience, innovation, and determination inspire us all.
This month and beyond, let's continue our journey towards a more inclusive, diverse, and accessible workplace. We have the power to create positive change, and I am immensely proud to lead a company that values each and every member of our team.
Thank you for your dedication, your commitment, and your unwavering support of our shared mission.
With gratitude and determination,
Angela Calzone,
President & CEO, Inroads to Opportunities
