We believe it’s important to understand and advocate for the three million people in the U.S. with disabilities, both as our employees and as part of our communities. Inside our company, the Support Services division employs 300 employees with disabilities to do marketing and fulfillment operations. From the team's inception to the department it has grown to today, our colleagues continually show their capacity for making a meaningful contribution while becoming financially stable, successful members of their communities.
On an even broader scale, we have collaborated with partners like the National Disability Institute (NDI) to help people with disabilities and their families achieve economic security. From courses on basic financial skills at Better Money Habits® to tax preparation services to help with job placement, we support nonprofits who are shifting public perception and enabling individuals with disabilities to participate fully in our economy.
We are honored to be recognized for our commitment to our employees. Here is a sample of awards we’ve received.
Recognized in 2020 for our efforts on disability inclusion
Recognized by Disability:IN for leading disability inclusion efforts in the U.S. and beyond
Disability Advocacy Network recognized with Above and Beyond Award
Recognized for ongoing commitment to disability rights
