## Caption

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM)! 🎉 It’s a chance to recognize the value and talent that individuals with disabilities bring to the workforce—and reflect on the work we still need to do.

With an employment rate of 22.5% for people with disabilities compared to 65.8% for those without, it’s clear we have room to grow. But small changes can make a huge impact in the workplace. 

Swipe through for practical tips on how to better support your DHH colleagues—like sending texts before meetings, turning down background noise, and using captions during presentations.

What’s one thing YOU wish employers or coworkers knew about working with people who are DHH? Let’s continue the conversation and work towards a more inclusive future. 💙

Thank you to gidgetbea for this idea!
