America’s Recovery: Powered by Inclusion NDEAM 2021

RPX celebrates National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM) by featuring Regas Woods. Woods was born with a congenital anomaly which did not allow his tibia and fibula to develop properly leading to both of his legs being amputated at the age of two. He went on to become a two-time Paralympian (2016, 2020).

National Disability Employment Awareness Month is an annual awareness campaign that takes place each October. The purpose of NDEAM is to educate about disability employment issues and to commemorate the many and varied contributions of people with disabilities to the global workforce and economy.
