Disability Justice Defined
Wheelchair accessibility. Bumps on the ground at crosswalks. There is so much more ground to cover. Join us in going beyond the ADA to achieve true disability justice. By raising awareness and finding ways to address inequities, we can celebrate everybody's unique and equal value. Together we can create a world with accessibility and equity at its core.
