Information for People with Disabilities
NOD has several in-house resources for organizations, businesses, and service providers on disability employment related issues. For more information on these offerings, see our CEO Council and What We Do.
While we are not a direct service provider, NOD offers resources and information for people with disabilities, including resources for legal advocacy, employment, transportation, and emergency services.
Our Mission and Vision
Our Mission:
The mission of the National Organization on Disability (NOD) is to expand the participation and contribution of America’s 54 million men, women, and children with disabilities in all aspects of life. Our current focus is on improving employment prospects for America’s 33 million working-aged Americans with disabilities.
Our Vision:
As employers increasingly place disability as a top diversity priority, persons with disabilities are actively recruited for a broad range of jobs and careers, and employers make reasonable accommodations to address their needs. Employers are rewarded by the skills, high productivity, and retention rates of workers with disabilities. In turn, persons with disabilities have positive financial incentives to work; are assured of continuing health benefits appropriate to their needs; are provided with the education and training to prepare them for productive careers; and enjoy the dignity, responsibility, and economic independence resulting from gainful employment
