Dear #Influencers ,

Can you please stop pretending to have a #disability in your videos for #views.

Much appreciated,
An actual Deaf person. 🤟🏻

Thank you CRESA for inviting me to give a virtual #speech about #Disability and #Inclusion in the workplace today! You were an amazing group! 🤟🏻

I am a #Deaf #woman living in a hearing world; so, about half my life is spent nodding in agreement and the other half is spent worrying about what I may have just agreed to….. 😳

[Easterseals Disability Film Challenge @DisabilityChall]

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM), an annual nationwide recognition that highlights the skills, diversity, and talent that people with disabilities bring to the workforce. Over the last 10 years the film challenge has led to jobs for people with disabilities in front of and behind the camera. We are excited to continue to see more success stories in the near future!
