October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) and Lehigh is celebrating!
To raise awareness and provide a wide range of ways to expand your understanding of the diverse experiences and needs of people with disabilities in the workplace, Lehigh Accommodations Specialist Kelly Woodbridge has designed a 31-day NDEAM Challenge. We invite you to check out our Google calendar and participate in as many activities as you can.
You can also download a printable calendar here.
