Sign the Pledge Card
During Disability History Week we ask that you sign our pledge to respect each person’s identity and promote the inclusion of people of all abilities.
One way to do this is by using person-first language. By placing the person first, the disability is no longer the primary, defining characteristic of an individual, but one of several aspects of the whole person.
