The values that guide our advocacy efforts
People with disabilities have the right to reasonable accommodations that are needed for full participation in their communities.

People with disabilities should have the same opportunity to participate in the community as persons without disabilities.

People with disabilities have the right to be afforded meaningful choices and to make informed decisions.
