As 2025 comes to a close, we’re taking a moment to reflect on the milestones that shaped an incredible year at neba.

We've accomplished a lot this year. In 2026, we’re committed to expanding access, strengthening partnerships, and continuing to break down barriers to employment for people with disabilities.

Thank you to every individual, employer, advocate, and supporter who made this year unforgettable. 💙

Together, we’re building a more inclusive future.

As we close out 2025, we’re reflecting on the generosity shown during Giving Tuesday and throughout the year. Every like, share, and donation helped strengthen neba’s mission - and reminded us what’s possible when a community comes together.

There’s still time to make an impact before the year ends. An end-of-year gift to neba helps ensure that people with disabilities continue to receive individualized employment support, guidance, and opportunity in the year ahead.

If you’ve been thinking about giving, now is the perfect moment. Together, we make work possible - not just on Giving Tuesday, but every day.
