Step2 Honors National Disability Employment Awareness Month

BuildingFront1Did you know October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month?

Weaver Industries is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for people with disabilities by providing vocational training and employment opportunities.

Weaver ProPak provides high-quality, professional assembly, packaging, kitting, labeling and fulfillment services. They recently opened their new warehouse and production facility in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. Step2 is working with Weaver ProPak to produce our Shootin’ Hoops Junior Basketball Set.

We look forward to a long and lasting partnership with this amazing organization.
