About The Event
Disability Rights Advocacy Day is a day of engagement at the State Capitol for people with disabilities from around the state to engage with lawmakers in an effort to further the cause of disability rights. Organizers believe it is critical to amplify the voices of individuals with disabilities, and involve them in all areas where important decisions are being made. Individuals with disabilities have the knowledge, experience, and ideas to inform much-needed policy changes. Too often, systemic changes happen with the disablity community in mind, but rarely with an invitation to have a seat at the table. DRAD was created to change that.
