Today marks the 34th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), landmark legislation that broke down barriers to inclusion in society. The ADA greatly expanded protections to include matters of physical accessibility, transportation, employment, government services, and other areas to provide access for and prevent discrimination against people with disabilities. While we celebrate these achievements, we recognize that there is still much work to be done to ensure full inclusion and equal opportunities for ALL in our community.

Historically, people with disabilities have faced exclusion and misconceptions. Embracing and celebrating all forms of disability, along with their overlapping identities, is an important step towards creating a more inclusive society. July is #DisabilityPrideMonth. Throughout the month, we'll share ways to educate ourselves and amplify the voices of people with disabilities. The more we listen to people with disabilities and share their truths, the more we can drive positive change!

As we head into the Fourth of July holiday and celebrate the freedoms we've gained throughout history, we also reflect on the work that still lies ahead. While we honor the progress made, we remain committed to ensuring that these freedoms extend to every individual in our community. Together and everyday, let's continue the fight for equality and justice, striving to make the promise of freedom a reality for ALL.

For the very first time, the City of Cincinnati raised the Disability Pride flag yesterday. Our very own Briana Moss sits on Cincinnati’s Accessibility Board of Advisors! Celebrated each July, Disability Pride marks the anniversary of the passing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), landmark legislation that broke down barriers to inclusion in society.
