October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month

We’re celebrating Joy and Sarah as they take an exciting next step in their careers! After more than a decade of experience in textile sorting, they are bringing their talents and experience to new roles in media pricing at our Sterling store.

Joy and Sarah’s story is a wonderful example of what can happen when people have opportunities to learn, grow, and explore new possibilities. As they take on this new challenge, they bring years of valuable experience, knowledge, and skills, along with an eagerness to learn and embrace something new.
During National Disability Employment Awareness Month, we celebrate the talents and contributions of people with disabilities and the importance of creating workplaces where everyone has the opportunity to contribute, develop their skills, and thrive.
Congratulations, Joy and Sarah! We’re proud to celebrate this exciting milestone with you and can’t wait to see all you accomplish in your new roles!
