On this International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we honor and celebrate all folks living with disabilities within the LGBTQ+ community. LGBTQ+ young people with disabilities often navigate both ableism and discrimination due to their sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression, creating unfair barriers to accessing equal opportunity. We’re working to build a world where everyone — and we mean everyone — is welcome and accepted.
We know that disability is nuanced —some visible and some not. To those living with physical, mental, or emotional disabilities, impairments, or challenges — this International Day of Persons With Disabilities is a reminder that we need all able-bodied allies to work towards creating a more inclusive and accessible world 🌎 For all of us 🧡
