July is Disability Pride Month. The physical demonstration in Washington D.C. known as the "Capital Crawl" on March 12, 1990 demonstrated inaccessibility in the United States. Over 1000 people marched from the White House to the U.S. Capitol. Then ditching their mobility aids, protesters crawled the Capitol steps. In response, the American Disabilities Act was passed. While the ADA has made great strides to making the US more accessible there is still much work to be done. Northern Illinois Food Bank recognizes the work that has been done and continues to be done for neighbors with disabilities and we continue to strive to make a positive impact. #neighborsempowered
