Post-Election Wrap Up https://www.facebook.com/events/1215125545226684/

We heard loud and clear from the disability community that there is a need for thoughtful conversations about disability policies and issues. We are grateful for the way the community has taken ownership and responsibility for this campaign. #CripTheVote will continue well after Election Day with a broader scope outside of Presidential elections. We will announce our next steps sometime this November!!

 

Thank You!!

In Solidarity, Gregg, Andrew & Alice
