July is Disability Pride Month, have you heard of it? This month was introduced to celebrate and amplify disability activists, elevate disabled voices, and rally against ableism in all areas of society. It also seeks to change the way we think about and define disability, promoting that it is a natural part of human diversity to be proud of. So let’s celebrate and amplify disabled voices! Let’s call out ableism where we see it in society. And let’s reassess our perceptions of disability. https://lnkd.in/dUbcXYVh

Disability Pride Month is celebrated every July and is an opportunity to honor the history, achievements, experiences, and struggles of the disability community. Why July? It marks the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), landmark legislation that broke down barriers to inclusion in society. https://smpl.is/9dajw #strategicmanagementlogistics #sml #virtualassistance #supportservices #virtualassistant #disabilitypridemonth #disabilityawareness

16 November to 16 December is #DisabilityHistoryMonth The theme for this year is Disability, Childhood and Youth. For me, this month is a chance for celebration, education and reflection. We can learn about social and cultural shifts over time, and the shifts that still need to be made. It's a chance to be moved by the activists that came before us and those who are fighting for us now. It can be hard to face the discrimination both historical and present but it's important that we, and that we celebrate the strides already made. This is the only minoritised group that any of us could join at any point, yet despite this the Disability Discrimination Act was not founded until 1995. There are still gaps in our laws when it comes to protecting disabled people. Please use this month to learn about disability activism and the work yet to do.
