For the month of March, we celebrate Disability Awareness!
This month-long observance was established in 1987 by President Ronald Reagan to help increase awareness, public understanding, and uncover potential of Americans with disabilities; to provide encouragement and opportunities for them to lead productive lives and reach their full potential.
What does this month mean and why is it important? This month serves as a chance to celebrate achievements, advocate for rights, and promoting inclusivity within societies. The importance of this month is not just to raise awareness, but to help reduce any stigma, promote self-advocacy, and ensuring that individuals with disabilities are included in making decisions that will affect their lives. To show your support and help spread awareness, be sure to check out the link at the end to see our Disability Awareness Month T-shirt, designed by one of our talented clients!
Stay tuned because this month we're going to take you on an adventure through the four regions of Developmental Services, Inc.! We're going to learn more about this month-long celebration, sit in on training sessions, hang out with a few administrative departments, and appreciate the staff that make the agency thrive!
