The Experience

Are you All-In? This October, join the Association for People Supporting Employment First (APSE) for the APSE All-In Virtual 5K: Running for Real Jobs & Real Pay! In celebration of National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM), we are turning advocacy into action. At APSE, our mission is clear: we believe that all people with disabilities have the right to Competitive Integrated Employment (CIE). Employment isn’t just a paycheck—it’s a cornerstone of civil rights, community inclusion, and equity. Because this event is 100% virtual, you can run, walk, or roll a 5K, 10K, Half, or Full Marathon at your own pace, anywhere in the country, at any time throughout the entire month of October. Whether you are hitting the treadmill, your favorite local trail, or organizing a meetup with your state APSE chapter, every mile you log helps us cross the finish line for Employment First. Why Participate? Advance the Mission: 100% of registration proceeds directly support national advocacy, education, and legislative efforts to advance Employment First policies.Flexible & Accessible: Complete your chosen distance on your terms, anytime between October 1st and October 31st.Represent Your Community: Form a team with your state chapter, your workplace, or your friends to see which region can show the most support for CIE. Real jobs. Real pay. No excuses. Lace up your sneakers, log your miles, and let’s move the needle for employment rights together.
