2026 Disability Employment Awareness Month Celebrating Value and Talent Watercolor image of Missouri State Capitol decorated with the American flag and “250”. Universal accessibility symbols and bursts of fireworks are above the capitol, with a scroll that reads: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Title: All Created Equal – Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are much easier when we provide workplaces built on accessibility that include talented individuals with mobility and other limitations. Work gives us a sense of purpose and allows us to enrich the lives of others. – Diana Keller (artist) GCD logo, disability.mo.gov/gcd/PosterContest
