The work the National Federation of the Blind does to ensure that every person—no matter their abilities—has the chance to thrive is transformative.

Even 35 years after the passage of the #ADA, activists and organizers, like Sen. Duckworth, are continuing drive to progress: fighting ableism and working to ensure people with disabilities have access to the full range of human rights.

Ahead of the 35th anniversary of the #AmericanswithDisabilitiesAct #ADA, our office hosted the 5th disability justice roundtable of Comptroller Lander's term.
The discussion focused on the inequities of NYC's "universal" afterschool program & payment delays for the City’s human service contractors.

He wasn't just detained. They pointed guns at and handcuffed a 15 year old nonverbal boy with disabilities and after they realized their mistake, they told him it would make a great story to tell his friends? Fuck every one of these people.😡
