Minnesota’s Disability community newspaper

Access Press was established in 1990 to inform the disability community about topics of concern to us and to provide accurate information about disability issues to the general public. We exist to be a catalyst for discussion of critical issues facing the community and to bring together the diverse voices of the community to promote equal access for people with disabilities in all areas of life.

Access Press is one of only six newspapers of its kind in the United States. Most of the articles we publish cannot be found in any other newspaper. Either coverage is nonexistent, or it is not from the perspective of people with disabilities. Access Press provides a critical resource unavailable anywhere else.

Access Press has been Minnesota’s source of news, information and resources for people with disabilities (physical, sensory and cognitive). In addition, it is the only statewide publication in Minnesota where policy makers, service providers and the general public can find information from the perspective of people with disabilities about a wide range of current topics.

Access Press is a 501(c)(3) organization run by and for people with disabilities.
