@mcahalane Thank you, Mary.
I hadn't thought about collecting this in 1 spot. Part of my frustration & reason for posting was that this stuff has been said before. I didn't add anything new.
@Lizbeth_City has a presentation that covers this & I recommend following #DisabledInDevelopment
Alright #FundraisingTwitter- Go read this great primer on Disability identity, language, and why you should always ask a person their preferences!
Also, follow @spazgirl11, who is also #DisabledInDevelopment https://t.co/8lfU7coTnl
The more I think about this today, the more stoked I am that @Hilborninfo, a #philanthropy news outlet, picked up my critique of @MDAorg's #fundraising practices and framed it as one way our sector can "build back better."

Oh the board Chair who patted me on the head while we talked to a major donor at our annual event.
#CripTip: Don't put your non-profit's limited $ into an open bar at your #fundraising gala. Booze + #ableism = Another Exciting Episode of #AbledsAreWeird
#DisabledinDevelopment
FYI: I owe the insight about belonging to an article by Norm Kunc that I stumbled across as a still-isolated #crip 20-ish years ago. If you haven't read anything by him and @Emmavanderklift, you're missing out. #DisabledinDevelopment #philanthropy

A focus on #ableism #equity respects a need to belong. Potential allies can't feel they belong when we position them as having to earn their way in 1st thru uncontextualized #access, #inclusion work. Bc it reinforces a divide, we've got #Disability 101 in 2019.

Gratitude to the #DisabledinDevelopment Storytellers who model #disability-led work in #philanthropy.

"The biggest gap in organizational commitments to disability inclusion continues to be a lack of inclusive hiring."

@jgboberg Hey, fellow @Awesome_Dis-er! Want to be a #DisabledinDevelopment Storyteller? Share what you know as a funder about the importance of taking on structural #ableism in #philanthropy. DM me your email and I'll get you set up. Thanks for thinking about it.
ICYMI (and #NDEAM2019): “For most of my adult life I have spent a significant amount of my earnings on things like personal assistance. I have seen how these restrictions have limited many from pursuing employment..." - @judithheumann 🦸♀️

Justice #funders: Your #grantmaking must support anti-#ableism advocacy and increase the capacity of #disabilityrights and #disabilityjustice orgs. Bc we know how to oppose threats that cross community lines like the #PublicCharge rule.
#FundraisingFriday #DisabledinDevelopment
Court stops #PublicCharge rule: Defs. do not explain how disability alone is [..] negative actor indicative of being more likely to become a public charge [..]it is inconsistent w/the reality that many ind w/disabilities live independent & productive lives https://t.co/FxB3GRlXN6

Oct is #NDEAM2019 and #philanthropy is a #workplace.
Enough "awareness." We need #equity. #DisabledinDevelopment
“Disability employment numbers are still abysmal, partly due to public benefit system restrictions but also due to bias and stigma against disability.”-@ImTiffanyYu

MT: "Foundations are talking about social inequality and #racism more explicitly...However, I don’t believe many in #philanthropy ever used the word '#ableism' in their materials or website related to discrimination."
Oof, @SFdirewolf you made our #DisabledinDevelopment week! ✊
