Seven Disability Rights Issues You Need to Know About

For the 31st anniversary of the landmark Americans with Disabilities Act, we partnered with The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights to explore some disability rights issues you need to know and care about. Because here’s the truth: More than three decades after passage of the ADA, there is so much work left to do to ensure that the ADA’s goal of full participation and inclusion is a reality for ALL people with disabilities. Never forget this: Disability rights are civil and human rights!

Guardianship Reform Needed

The National Guardianship Network, in which NDRN participates, brought together 125 advocates, family guardians, judges, lawyers, scholars, and other stakeholders for the Fourth National Guardianship Summit. These participants gathered virtually for four days to discuss the current state of the nation’s adult guardianship system and develop recommendations for reform and improvement around the theme of maximizing autonomy and ensuring accountability.

Help us improve air travel

The Air Carrier Access Act made great strides in allowing people with disabilities to access air travel. However, numerous barriers remain. Help us fix the Air Carrier Access Act by contacting Congress today.
