This October, we celebrate the 75th anniversary of National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM), which honors America’s workers with disabilities and reminds employers of the importance of inclusive hiring practices. The theme for the 2020 observance of NDEAM is “Increasing Access and Opportunity.”

We have curated a list of four mobile apps currently available or coming to market soon for iPhone/Android. These may serve to enhance the lives of people with disabilities using modern technology.

This week (September 13th – 19th, 2020), we are honoring Direct Support Professionals across the nation! Now more than ever, DSPs deserve recognition as the everyday heroes they are. Throughout this challenging year, DSPs have continued to exemplify what it means to be truly dedicated and selfless.

A special thank you to the City of Tampa for investing in the future of our children!

On behalf of the Sunrise Northeast Opportunities team and our campers who, while spread throughout the state, remain with us in spirit, thank you Hartford Foundation for your continuing support for people with disabilities.

On behalf of Sunrise staff and especially on behalf of the children and their families attending our new center, thank you Hillsborough County for investing in our children’s future!
