Happy Martin Luther King Day!

[New York Disability Advocates @NYDisabilityAdv]

We won't achieve the #NewYorkDream until NYers with I/DD can access the supports & services they depend on to thrive.

@GovKathyHochul the future of the I/DD service sector depends on you. Let's make the I/DD community a priority in the upcoming budget. #StateOfTheStateNY

Fact: Disabled people experience poverty at nearly twice the rate of non-disabled people.

Barriers to employment—including denial of reasonable ADA accommodations, biases in hiring, & a lack of accessibility—prevent disabled people from reaching true economic equity. #NDEAM
