🚨 Disability Rights News

On June 18, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) released a letter that could impact the future of disability rights and access to community-based services. The letter addresses the ADA’s “integration mandate” and the interpretation of the landmark Olmstead decision, raising important questions for the disability community.

Your voice matters. Read the letter, learn more and contact your elected officials at: https://conta.cc/4aheTIi.

Today, we celebrate the 27th anniversary of the Olmstead Decision, a landmark Supreme Court ruling that affirmed the right of people with disabilities to work and participate in their communities rather than in institutions.

The fight for true community inclusion continues, and Olmstead remains a powerful reminder that disability rights are civil rights.
