Misconceptions about disability remain one of the biggest barriers to workplace inclusion. Too often, myths about productivity, attendance, or accommodations prevent talented individuals with disabilities from being fully valued and supported.

As part of our National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) webinar series, join us for Dispelling Myths About Disability: Building Inclusive Workplace Practices. This session will address the most common misconceptions about disability in the workplace and provide practical strategies for fostering inclusion at every level—from hiring to day-to-day interactions with colleagues.

What you’ll learn:

  • The most common myths about disability and the facts that debunk them.
  • How stigma impacts employees, teams, and organizational culture.
  • Inclusive practices that employers, supervisors, and coworkers can put into action.
  • Free resources that support accessibility, accommodations, and workplace inclusion.

By the end of this session, you’ll leave with a clearer understanding of how to break down barriers, support your colleagues, and help create a workplace culture where everyone can thrive.
