On Indigenous Peoples’ Day: for two years we’ve worked with Tribal communities on access to assistive tech, starting by listening. That led to all-terrain wheelchairs, door openers and Ask Grandma. Access shouldn’t depend on your zip code. 💚 cparf.org/restoring-connections #IndigenousPeoplesDay
Restoring Connections: A Vision for Indigenous-Led Assistive Technology | CPARF
Assistive technology is the promise of what’s possible when disabled people have the tools they need to participate in family life, cultural life, and community life on their own terms.

300,000 steps in 30 days. Roughly Philadelphia to the Capitol, where in 1990 disabled activists crawled 83 steps to demand the ADA.

Progress is never automatic. It happens because you choose to act. Thank you for moving with us.

This STEPtember, every mile walked backs the startups we support through Remarkable US to close that gap.

In 2022, 40.2% of working-age adults with travel-limiting disabilities made no trips at all that day. We haven't asked why since 2002, when 560,000 people named transportation as the reason. steptember.us #STEP26

You've probably hit 1,600 steps today. That's a quick walk to the coffee shop. It's also the distance that decides who gets paratransit access. Live farther than 3/4 mile? You're out of luck. steptember.us #STEP26
