Today is International Day of Persons with Disabilities. First recognized in 1992 by the UN, this day is an opportunity to celebrate the diverse achievements of people with disabilities and advocate for their rights, inclusion, and equity.

This year’s theme? “Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future.”

People with disabilities — of all kinds — should have the power to lead decision-making on issues of accessibility, inclusion, and representation at all levels. It’s essential that we create spaces where people with disabilities are empowered to shape their own futures.

How can your community, workplace, or organization better support people with disabilities? Let’s think about ways to foster inclusion, accessibility, and belonging for everyone.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance.

It is a day to honor transgender and non-binary individuals who lost their lives to violence for living authentically. Transgender Day of Remembrance, or TDoR, also calls on us to offer support to the trans and non-binary communities — and advocate for their safety, visibility, and equity.

To learn how to be an ally on TDoR and beyond, explore our new resource at the link in bio.

The holiday season`s almost here — does that feel exciting, stressful, a mix of both, or none of the above?

Protect your well-being this season. That might mean saying “no” to social outings, creating lists to stay organized, adjusting travel plans, or making sure your body is nourished.

Be sure to reach out to someone you trust if you need support. And learn helpful pick-me-ups and tips on recharging by visiting the link in our bio.
