When Kendra Bailey speaks about advocating for themselves and other people with disabilities, a strong sense of pride is unmistakable. After working with several nonprofits serving marginalized groups, Kendra met with a site supervisor at Relay Resources and decided that “this is a place I need to be.” Now, Kendra is an employee success coach at the organization, and uses their voice to advocate for the disability community.

Empowering people who are #blind or have significant disabilities starts with action. NIB and its associated nonprofit agencies urge Congress to adopt a 1% #AbilityOne Program utilization goal for the #DepartmentOfDefense. This statutory goal could create tens of thousands of new #employmentopportunities for people who are blind or have significant disabilities, enhancing their economic independence. Learn more about this important initiative and how your voice can make a difference! https://ow.ly/qqIh50SBI5O #ChampionEmploymentGrowth #DisabilityEmployment #DisabilityAwareness #YourVoiceMatters

Private Tutor @ Self-Employed | English Language AQA, EDEXCEL GCSE (carer & children's rights campaigner)
Why did I start the disability inclusion campaign? Because I used to be a parent carer and I know how hard that is… Because I used to have a child with a disability and I know how hard that is… Because discrimination was happening: children with disabilities were being ignored, excluded and turned down help. I know how hard it feels to be in this situation. Because policy need to be changed, to help children with disabilities and their parent-carers struggling with the cost-of-disability-crisis in the cost-of-living-crisis. This is a hard thing to change. A campaign was needed. I spoke about this on Sky News, last month (please see video below). Thanks to Sky News, Rook Irwin Sweeney (human rights) lawyers, Crowdjustice and Contact charity for all their work, help and support. For more information on the campaign, please see this webpage on Contact charity’s website: https://lnkd.in/emP7KVCB If you would personally like to support the campaign please go to Crowdjustice: https://lnkd.in/emJV6c67 Thank you! #costoflivingcrisis #costofdisabilitycrisis #disabilityinclusion #disabilityrights #disabilityawareness #disabilityadvocate #carersupport #carersuk #parentcarercampaigner #humanrights #socialcare #freeschoolmeals #EDI #equityineducation #equalitydiversityinclusion #equalopportunity #inclusionmatters
