Disability Action in Coalition

Be a part of history!

Last year California’s policy-makers passed the FAIR Education Act, which adds Disability History and the truthful stories of our roles models and their advocacy to social studies lessons in schools. So let’s join together to create change and make history – maybe someday students will learn about US and OUR advocacy on May 30, 2012!

The 9th annual Disability Capitol Action Day is on the brink of completing a decade of advocacy in Sacramento, so the Disability Action Coalition has planned a day of great events, inspiring speakers, educational resources and interaction with policy-makers…all of which will remind Californian’s that there is nothing about US without US.

This year’s Disability Capitol Action Day will host a number of engaging speakers including California’s Secretary of State Debra Bowen, who will speak about the importance of voting in our democracy.

Join thousands of people with disabilities and our legislative sponsor Senator Ellen Corbett to change hearts and minds by registering today!
