Happy Disability Pride Month! July marks the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which prohibits discrimination based on disability. While we have come a long way in recognizing and accommodating various disabilities, much work must be done to make our spaces and systems truly accessible. Let’s continue to advocate for inclusivity, accessibility, and equal opportunities for all. Together, we can build a more inclusive society!
