"Talent for a Winning Team" Poster Now Available
Patches of color (blues, greens, browns and purple) serve as the backdrop to the 2007 National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) poster. The theme, Workers with Disabilities: Talent for a Winning Team, is depicted by a runner’s legs, one of them prosthetic, sprinting to success while crossing the patchwork. The words “October 2007 is National Disability Employment Awareness Month” appear in the upper right corner of the poster. The lower right corner includes the words “U.S. Department of Labor, Office of Disability Employment Policy” and the agency’s web site address.
Availability: The print copy of this poster is available in either a 20” x 30” and/or a 10” x 15” size. Please send your request to NDEAM@dol.gov
The 2007 National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) poster, depicting this year’s theme, Workers with Disabilities: Talent for a Winning Team, is now available. In addition to its representation of the national NDEAM theme, this poster is popular throughout the year in connection with events that foster employment opportunities for workers with disabilities.
Each year, U.S. Department of Labor Secretary Elaine L. Chao selects the official theme. The Office of Disability Employment Policy leads the national recognition. Public Law 176, enacted by Congress in 1945, established October as the official month to recognize the contributions that individuals with disabilities have made to the workforce and the workplace.
