"Title 1 Talk." On a blue vertical panel on the left, white text reads "Title 1 Talk." The main white panel contains the following text: "Myth: Having a disability means you can’t be a competitive employee. Fact: Under Title I of the ADA, employment decisions must be based on qualifications, not assumptions. People with disabilities bring skills, innovation, and value—and with the right support, they thrive at work." At the bottom is a red box with the hashtag #NDEAM.
