Friend,

This month, we’re on a mission to reshape public understanding about disability by ensuring more people Know the Facts. We hope you help spread these truths with us!

The first thing to know is that Disability is Nonpartisan. More than 1 in 4 Americans have a disability, making it a shared issue that transcends politics, geography, age, and background.

It’s also important to understand that Disability is Connection. It affects everyone – friends, coworkers, neighbors, and family members – often in ways that are not immediately apparent.

Finally, Disability is Relatable. Everyone benefits from accessibility and support – and many of us already engage with accommodations and accessible technology without realizing it. You’ve used accessible technology like voice activation, automatic doors, and hand-held shower sprays.

For more than 100 years, Easterseals has been raising awareness about disability and supporting people at every age and life stage. Today, we’re working to serve more of the 70 million Americans nationwide who have a disability.
