On the 34th anniversary of the American Disability Act (ADA), it's important to acknowledge we've come a long way, but there's still much work to do to promote equal opportunity for people with disabilities. The first step toward equality is acceptance. Here are some highlights from YAI's Central Park Challenge--a day when our community comes together to celebrate people of all abilities. #ADA34 #AmericanDisabilityAct #DisabilityPride #ADAAnniversary

CRYPTOCURRENCY & REYGITONIUM-G TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I ABSOLUTELY SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH CRYPTOCURRENCY: REYGITONIUM-G I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY THE INFANT DEMOCRATIC-CAPITALISTIC MINDS OF TODAY BLAME USA GOVERNMENT. THEN IS ANY GOVERNMENT TO BE BLAMED FOR HOMELESS PROBLEMS PLAGUING THE WORLD.? NO. GOD KNOWS HEADACHES USA GOVERNMENT HAVE WITH THE FOREIGN AFFAIRS. THE NEW WORLD PRACTICALLY SHOCK TO WITNESS. PEOPLE ONLY WORKING TOGETHER FOR A COMMON GOAL. "IN THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS." DOESN'T THAT ALSO INCLUDE THE HOMELESS. THE HOMELESS ARE OUT THERE. ARE YOU.? HOMELESS.. OPPORTUNITY MISUNDERSTOOD. The modern economic system is a market economy, which is a capitalist economy where people, not the government--NOT THE GOVERNMENT--own most businesses. In a capitalist economy, prices allocate capital and labor between competing uses, and capital assets can be privately owned and controlled. https://lnkd.in/eB98Jnv9 EXAMPLE, IF YOU NEED TO RAISE MONEY FOR ANY REASON OR MORE SO LETS SAY THE "HOMELESS" PROBLEM WHICH IS BELIEVED TO BE TIME & MONEY CONSUMING BUT IN ONE DIRECTION TOWARD THE HOMELESS.

Join WHC in celebrating #DisabilityPrideMonth today, on the 34th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Enacted on July 26, 1990, the ADA marked a crucial moment in the journey towards equality and inclusion. Challenges in accessibility and discrimination persist, especially in housing—a domain not directly covered by the ADA but protected under the Fair Housing Act to ensure reasonable accommodations and modifications for those with disabilities. This 2023 article from Open Communities details the significance of Disability Pride Month and the critical issue of housing discrimination still faced by many in the disability community: https://buff.ly/4bZ5UcA

July is Disability Pride Month! Having a disability, whether visible or not, does not mean you have less to offer. For many disabled people, however, it does mean having to fight harder for the same opportunities as your non-disabled friends or colleagues. This is a month to celebrate disabilities in all their colours to encourage positive change and conversation all year round. Check out the below article from AccessAble for 6 ways in which you can make a difference: https://lnkd.in/eaWrGVwX 'There's no doubt that 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐝 to implement further equality legislation, tackle discrimination, narrow the employment gap and improve accessibility on a global scale. Everyone should have the right to earn, learn, be cared for and feel included and represented.' #DisabilityPrideMonth #DEI #DisabilityAwareness #DiversityAndInclusion

I am looking to find out what current politicians believe about people with disabilities and why they are pushing back against the disability rights agenda. If anyone can tell me who specifically is doing that and why I will be addressing that in my book. #Publishingthetruth

I just read an article about reducing the stigma of a disability as "special.". I believe it is important to remove this word from everyday language, conversation, issues, and policies.

Today marks the 34th Anniversary of the Americas with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). The ADA, signed into law on July 26, 1990, was a landmark piece of legislation that broke down barriers to inclusion, but people in the disability community still experience discrimination, social stigma, and marginalization. Lifeworks recognizes the important role the ADA continues to play in ensuring greater access and opportunities for people with disabilities – but we know there is still more work to be done. That is why Lifeworks is committed to partnering with people with disabilities so that we can continue to identify barriers, address challenges, and build inclusive communities and workplaces. #LifeworksMN #ADA34 #ADAAnniversary #DisabilityInclusion
