Dear DRA Family,
 
The day is finally here! DRA's first ever virtual gala is this evening at 5pm PT/8PM ET. Please join us for an inspiring celebration of DRA's high-impact work and the 30th anniversary of the ADA. 
 
Tickets are FREE! And it's not too late to register!

To access the event, simply follow this link. The virtual gala will begin at 5pm PT/8PM ET this evening.
 
Emcees Shane Burcaw & Hannah Aylward will guide us through a program featuring stories from DRA clients about our urgent, high-impact legal work (including voting rights) and special guest presenters Rebecca Alexander, Zach Anner, Keah Brown, Victor Cordon, Evan Davis, Dave Flink, Dorene Giacopini, Lucy Lee Helm, Judge Thelton Henderson, Judy Heumann, Cynthia Nixon, Rebekah Taussig, Carson Tueller, and Hoby Wedler.
 
The entire program will include captioning and ASL interpretation, and the short film will feature audio description.
 
All proceeds from the gala will support DRA's continued fight for justice for people with disabilities across the nation. We are deeply grateful to our event sponsors. There is still time to sponsor or support the gala!

Looking forward to sharing stories of impact with you! We promise it will be an evening to remember.
 
Sincerely,
 
Kate and the DRA Team
