MEMORANDUM

Posted: June 10, 2019 05:53 PM
From: Senator Christine M. Tartaglione
To: All Senate members
Subject: Disability Pride Week
 
In the near future, I plan to introduce a resolution declaring June 10 through June 15, 2019 as Disability Pride Week. This week is designed to change the way people think about and define “disability.”

Disability pride is about accepting and honoring each person's uniqueness and seeing it as a natural and beautiful part of human diversity. It rejects the notion that certain physical, mental, or cognitive differences are negative or wrong and promotes acceptance, dignity and pride.

Please join me in co-sponsoring this important resolution and help all constituents in the commonwealth understand and celebrate the uniqueness and pride in all of us, despite our abilities.
