SUMMARY:Global Best Buddies NDEAM Event
DESCRIPTION:Creating the Conditions: Building Inclusive Opportunities for All \nJoin us this October as we celebrate National Disability Employment Awareness Month highlighting how inclusive cultures are built with intention\, empathy\, and collective action. NDEAM reminds us of the indispensable role that individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) play in our workplaces and communities. While we spotlight the power of inclusion during October\, our commitment extends year-round to weaving accessibility\, opportunity\, and belonging into every day. \n2025 Event Highlights \nJoin us for an inspiring storyteller showcase hosted by Stephanie Rothey\, Director of National Partnerships. This year’s National Disability Employment Awareness Month broadcast is centered on the power of lived experience and the impact of personal storytelling. Through four unique perspectives\, we will illustrate how individuals and organizations alike are creating the conditions for inclusive employment. \nBy taking a 360-degree approach\, this year’s program shines a light on the many voices that shape inclusive workplaces. From the employees building confidence and skills\, to the managers championing opportunity\, to the colleagues\, families\, and support systems that surround them\, each story demonstrates that inclusion does not happen by accident; it is the result of intentional action and shared responsibility. \nTogether\, these perspectives form a powerful narrative of what is possible when everyone plays a role in creating cultures of opportunity and belonging. This showcase is not only a celebration of achievement but also a call to action\, reminding us that the conditions for inclusion are built through connection\, collaboration\, and commitment at every level \nPlease contact Stephanie Rothey with any questions: StephanieRothey@bestbuddies.org.

SUMMARY:Supporting Neurodivergent Employees: Neuroinclusion at Work
DESCRIPTION:Many workplaces are designed for neurotypical people. This can make it harder for autistic and neurodivergent employees to feel supported\, included\, and understood. \nManagers and teams often don’t get the training or tools they need to work effectively with neurodivergent employees. Differences in communication\, social interaction\, or sensory needs are sometimes misunderstood as poor performance or lack of professionalism. Fear\, uncertainty\, and rigid workplace norms can create unintentional barriers. \nThis session is designed for employers\, managers\, and teams who want to better support autistic and neurodivergent colleagues. We’ll keep the discussion simple\, clear\, and focused on what matters most. Together\, we’ll talk about: \n\n\nUnderstanding neurodiversity — how different brains work and why that’s a strength \n\n\nCommon challenges — why misunderstandings happen between managers\, coworkers\, and neurodivergent employees \n\n\nDisclosure and accommodations — how to create safe spaces and offer support without pressure \n\n\nBuilding inclusive teams — reducing social isolation and supporting positive relationships \n\n\nPractical steps to take — what managers and organizations can do right now to improve inclusion \n\n\nBy learning to recognize and support neurodivergent employees\, you help create a workplace where everyone can succeed\, and where people can bring their strengths to the table without hiding who they are.
