NavigateMD harnesses the power of technology to connect individuals with disabilities to inclusive resources - nonprofit organizations, healthcare providers, & businesses - that make everyday life more accessible. But we’re more than just another directory. Unlike static lists that leave you to do all of the searching, NavigateMD helps match you with the right supports based on your specific needs - saving time, reducing stress, and opening doors to opportunities.

And the best part? You can do it all from the comfort of your own home - whether it’s 3 in the afternoon or 3 in the morning. Find what you need, exactly when you need it, without the frustration of phone calls, waitlists, and dead ends.

At our core, we’re a COMMUNITY, not the yellow pages - a place where families, providers, and organizations come together to create a network of inclusion, accessibility, and belonging.

Join our waitlist! We look forward to serving you in 2026 🙂♥️

Everyone knows someone with a disability—whether it's a family member, friend, neighbor, or colleague. Accessibility and inclusion aren’t just about meeting individual needs; they’re about building a society where everyone has the opportunity to participate, contribute, and belong. When we design with inclusion in mind, we create a better world for all of us. Check out this infographic on how disabilities impact those within the U.S (per the CDC).

Disability Pride Month starts today, and this year is especially meaningful as we celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA)!!

The Disability Pride flag is a powerful symbol of unity and acceptance, with each color representing a different aspect of the disability community:

* Red: Physical Disabilities
* Yellow/Gold: Neurodiversity
* White: Invisible and undiagnosed disabilities
* Blue: Emotional and psychiatric disabilities
* Green: Sensory disabilities, including visual, hearing, and other sensory impairments

The black border surrounding the stripes stands in remembrance of disabled individuals lost to ableism, violence, and abuse.
