October is National Disability Awareness Month. During this
month, employers, volunteer organizations, churches, schools, and
other groups are encouraged to provide seminars and job fairs that
promote understanding of disabilities and emphasize a person's
abilities rather than disabilities. This issue of MMWR includes
reports of assessments of work disability, mobility disability, and
self-care disability in the United States. Additional information
about National Disability Awareness Month is available from The
President's Committee on Employment of People with Disabilities,
131 F Street, N.W., Washington, DC 20004-1107; telephone (202) 376-
6200.
