In addition to #DSPAppreciationWeek, today is also Disability Voting Rights Week! Disabled voters are a part of every community. Yet systemic barriers prevent many people with disabilities from accessing their right to vote. We'd like to empower everyone, especially those with IDD, to know and understand their rights as voters! Here's a great informational deck as a resource for disabled individuals to gain insight into how, where, and when to vote from The Arc of Illinois! #DisabilityVotingRightsWeek #Disability #Voting #DisabilityRights

Great efforts have been made by the Election Commission to make voting inclusive for all, especially for persons with disabilities (PwD). Provisions like ramps, volunteers, and assistive devices have been made to help PwD cast their vote. But many PwD are not taking full advantage of this facility due to lack of awareness. Let's work together to raise awareness and encourage greater participation from persons with disabilities in the upcoming elections. Every voice matters! Share this message to spread the word and encourage everyone to exercise their right to vote. #raiseawarenessvote #inclusivedemocracy #everyvoiceheard #voteyourfuture #makeadifferencevote #empowerallvoters #equitabledemocracy #nabmeerut

Ok now look at reverse side of it and JUST IMAGINE, WHAT IF ALL THESE YEARS IT WAS TOLD "IMANE IS A WOMEN" AND HAS "NO PLACE AMONG MEN"? AND NOW WHEN ITS RIGHTLY SO, WE ARE HERE QUESTIONING AGAIN? WHAT WOULD ONE SAY IF A STRONG #INDIAHARYANAWOMEN IS THERE? Will such questions make her man? I will like to use this situation to sensitize with the plight of 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐝 & 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐔𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐠𝐠𝐥𝐞, Neglect, Marginalization & Misunderstanding & misnamed throughout their life by almost everyone either OPENLY OR COVERTLY FROM NEIGHBORHOOD TO SCHOOL TO UNIVERSITY TO WORLD OF OFFICE. But the day they themselves agree align & comes forward & says , "Yes, I am disabled," seeking understanding & acceptance, asking for their equal space in society, but instead of support, they're met with: '' You don't have to be disabled to be part of it'' "if disabled, why are you here" " Disabled have no special right.( but yes we can ill-treat you for sure)" Let's confront the uncomfortable truth: we must acknowledge the struggles of disabled individuals before we decide how to treat them. Calling someone 'disabled' to demean them is not the same as calling them 'normal' when they seek support. Let's choose empathy and respect. - Many are not given education, jobs, deserved promotions on name of disability. - Many are not given equal CTCs at offices or perks or fringe benefits even govt offers #AccessibleIndia #SugamBharat. When one gets ill & bed ridden & shares post about it, just imagine those who are having struggle daily from listening, speaking, seeing, walking, lifting & on top of it mentally cursed by people around openly or covertly. Others can imagine the trouble of disabled, so please do not ill treat at least.
