(From the City of Findlay)

Mayor Christina Muryn has issued a proclamation declaring October 2025, as Disability Employment Awareness Month in Findlay, Ohio, and encourages all citizens to join in this observance and to embrace the talents and skills of workers with disabilities.

We call upon employers to review their hiring and retention policies to ensure they are fully inclusive and accessible.

By doing so, we can continue to advance our shared message that people with disabilities add immense value and talent to our workplaces and communities. (read the full proclamation below)

It’s National Disability Employment Awareness Month?

Approximately 22% of the people we support, who are of working age (16+), are employed at a job in the community. Twenty-three people are employed full-time, 77 have part-time positions and 2 are working seasonally.

We look to you, our community members and employers, to assist in breaking the barriers that hold back people with disabilities from obtaining employment opportunities. Help us recognize and celebrate the value and talent people with disabilities bring to their workplaces.
