Dateability

October is National Disability Employment Month. The workforce has historically been unkind to disabled people, which has triggered systemic damage resulting in negative stereotypes & stigmas from both outside AND within the community. Many disabled people are able to participate in the workforce, but that doesn't always mean we are welcomed. We must continue to fight for workplace accommodations, equal wages, and inclusive working environments. ?? [Image Description: A wheelchair user working on a computer wearing headphones.
