Happy Disability Pride Month! It’s truly a celebration and I love that our country takes the time to honor the advancements and contributions of individuals with disabilities, but it shouldn’t stop there. Support should be part of our everyday lives, all year round.
I, along with others, get pulled in for the month of July, October, as well as December 3rd for awareness campaigns. It is my heart’s desire that our experiences and expertise are not limited to just awareness holidays. These are great launching pads, but making this a consistent and transcendent conversation that permeates everyday life should become a social norm. I strongly encourage and support everyone in taking the first step today, making a commitment to making our workplaces more inclusive.
What are you doing this month to make a difference? Are you hosting inspiring events, joining impactful webinars, or committing to making your spaces more accessible? Maybe you’re launching new initiatives or engaging in service that changes policy or practices. Persons with disabilities are the largest marginalized community in the world, yet we are still fighting for equity & inclusion. It doesn’t have to be this way at all and you absolutely have the power to change that.
Share your exciting plans and actions. We can work TOGETHER to create a more inclusive society, not just for this month, but for the next 365 days.
