For National Disability Employment Awareness Month each October, Tech Disability Project runs an industrywide campaign to increase representation of tech founders and employees with disabilities. Through hosting community events and publishing first person narratives, TDP aims to increase the visibility of our community and broaden access within the industry.

“Disability is not something an individual overcomes. I’m still disabled. I’m still Deafblind. People with disabilities are successful when we develop alternative techniques and our communities choose inclusion.”
