July 26, 1990, marked a significant milestone in the fight for equality and inclusivity with the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). This landmark legislation prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life, including employment, transportation, housing, and access to various government programs and services. Since its enactment, July has been designated as Disability Pride Month—a time to honor the many unique talents and skills of people living with disabilities. Disability, whether visible or invisible, can happen at any point in a person's lifetime. Each individual’s experience with disability is unique, underscoring the importance of recognizing and celebrating this diversity. Disability Pride Month is an opportunity to expand our consciousness of those living with disabilities and to reflect upon their contributions. Increased awareness invites opportunities to change how disability is perceived, end stigmas, and promote an appreciation of disability as a natural part of human diversity. As we celebrate the anniversary of the ADA, here are 34 amazing things to celebrate and honor the contributions and achievements of individuals with disabilities:
