HOLYOKE — The first MassHire Holyoke All-Abilities Career Fair highlighting National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) will take place on Wednesday, Oct. 12 from 4 to 7 p.m. at Vcare Holyoke, located at 200 High St. Businesses and community resources will be available for job seekers.

Reflecting a commitment to a robust and competitive Massachusetts labor force, each October, NDEAM celebrates the contributions of workers with disabilities and educates about the value of a workforce inclusive of their skills and talents.

The theme for NDEAM 2022 is “Disability: Part of the Equity Equation.” It recognizes the important role people with disabilities play in a diverse and inclusive workforce. It is a fitting time to educate about disability employment issues and celebrate the many and varied contributions of America’s workers with disabilities.
