As we get closer to the November election, it's important for people with disabilities to know their rights when it comes to voting. This is especially critical for people who have guardians, and may face barriers to voting. Learn more from the The Arc of the United States.

An important op-ed from Maura Sullivan at The Arc of Massachusetts highlighting the work still to be done to normalize acceptance and inclusion for people with disabilities or neurodivergence.
NEW: Deputy Executive Director Maura Sullivan writes for the Boston Globe Opinion: "Representation of people with autism and intellectual and developmental disabilities means centering them in advocacy so their lived experience is highlighted. Years of legal and policy advocacy may not have moved the needle as far as Gus and his dad potentially did last week. In an instant, on a national stage, they became beacons of social change." https://lnkd.in/efxW8QX7

“What we're seeing with the bullying of Gus Walz online isn't just cruel – it's a painful reminder of what kids with disabilities face every single day ... That means our society is teaching countless kids with disabilities that they are somehow less than because of factors outside of their control, including emotional expression and disability." - Katy Neas, CEO of The Arc of the United States
Gus Walz broke the internet with his tearful love for his dad. Then the bullying began
