@howie_hua 10% of 300 is 30 so 5% (half of 10%) is 15 (half of 30). This makes 95% = 300 - 15
= 285 (or 95%) because 100% - 5% = 95%

I never want to give the impression that I speak on behalf of the entire disability community. But there is one thing I'm pretty confident is universal: the desire for a more inclusive, more accessible world. To reach that, we can't return to "normal." We must return to better.

[Emily Ladau @emily_ladau]

Wheelchair user here. I don't actually want or need this. It isn't helpful. It doesn't account for inaccessibility beyond entry points.

Tech companies: stop wasting money on building robotic "fixes." Support elimination of structural inaccessibility. https://t.co/NOpPRW5t6g

State-funded group homes in NY are facing a funding crisis due to cuts from the state & federal government. If funding is cut to these homes nearly 38,000 individuals with disabilities who reside in a residential setting will be drastically impacted. https://t.co/xSIDL8qcZH

Thank you to @redbankpl for donating 4 boxes of books to The Arc's day programs. We know many readers who will be excited to explore these when in-person programs reopen. 📚

Calling all PCCS DSPs! If you missed it, we're raffling off a new gift each day this week to one lucky DSP, for all of their hard work and dedication, as we celebrate DSP Appreciation Week! Tune into our Facebook each day this week as we announce the winners!

[AHRC New York City @AHRCNYC]

It is DSP Recognition Week. Now more than ever, DSPs everywhere deserve our full support and appreciation for striving towards social justice and full lives for people with developmental disabilities. Through the week we will celebrate the work they do.

@josephamadigan @Education_Ire May I ask what experience you have with teaching? Have you studied child development, particularly the issues students with special needs have?

[Sibling Leadership Network @sibleadership]

Sibs,
📣
Isolation and accessible information regarding healthcare are a few ways that people with disabilities are vulnerable during this #covid-19 pandemic. We signed a letter endorsing equal medical treatment. Read more below or visit our website to read the full letter.

[Sibling Leadership Network @sibleadership]

Hi Sibs,

At the SLN sharing is caring. That's why we're putting this resource on your radar. @AUCDNews is offering a month-long webinar series on disability inclusion as it relates to the novel coronavirus. Find out more at this link:

@SarahHuckabee You should be so ashamed of yourself for mocking someone with a stutter.
