Please join me at @AAPD‘s free, virtual National Community Event 4/23! Being an AAPD board member is so important to me & I can’t wait to celebrate their work and the disability community’s power with you #DisabilityCommunity2024 #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs eventbrite.com/e/2024-aapd-na…
Today I attended the US Access Board in Los Angeles to be updated about several accessibility federal rules and also got to meet with my former @AAPD intern mentor @maddyruvolo !! I heard public comments and met others in community too like @MarisaHamamoto !
Headed to #SXSW2024 ?? We’d like to invite you to our panel, “Designing a Disability Forward Housing Future” next Monday at 11:30 CT in the Hilton Austin Downtown, Salon A. Moderated by the wonderful Allie Cannington!!! Let’s together build a disability forward housing future!!
After the hard work of countless Board staff & Members, #disability advocates, and members of the public, the Board is proud to announce that our public right-of-way #accessibility guidelines rulemaking has finished! 🎉 Learn more here: access-board.gov/prowag/
Who relates to this 🙋🏻???? #FridayNightPlan #busylife instagram.com/reel/Cvh1KnzOC…
For #DisabilityPrideMonth I’m watching kids with dwarfism playing basketball, knowing that their kids will likely be the last generation of our people. Eugenics never went anywhere, people. Supporting the creation of a historical archives for my community is all I can do.
Transportation Planning in LA is much more complex and challenging than in much more denser cities. But what counts is developing a much more extensive network with good reliability, more multimodal options, and quicker travel times.

News flash⚡️ these diagnoses count as a disability under the ADA: • Mental health • Diabetes • Long Covid • Arthritis No matter how u decide to identify, the ADA protects ur rights based on disability. Identifying helps us create collective power.
it’s not lost on me that this was taken at a (very windy) gas station but we have to fund public transit!!!! for accessibility, for the climate, so that people can get around without sitting in traffic. we need the state to help fund our transit agencies or we’ll see dire cuts
Today is the end of the COVID public health emergency. The past 3 years have been especially hard for disabled folks. We’ve been left behind in policymaking & in mitigation measures. While the emergency declaration is no longer in place, COVID remains an emergency for us. #COVID
Waitress: “Can I ask a question? I see that you’re in a wheelchair. Do you go to physical therapy? I’m in PT school and I need a recommendation for a clinical placement.” Disabled people just want to EXIST.
Are you intersex? Can you give feedback on your experiences accessing healthcare? Complete the survey to inform better intersex healthcare 👉 bit.ly/3ZPOUQg
Physical accessibility to events matters. Remote access to events matters. We can't limit remote options, espcially when physical access excludes COVID precautions. Unfortunately, even many disability orgs are doing this. It feels very "immunocompromised need not apply."
Legislators: So you want to save the children? Protect youth through bodily autonomy. Protect youth by letting them be their authentic selves. Let trans & intersex youth make their own choices about their own bodies, when they are ready. #TransIntersexSolidarity
I've just heard that @CareFirst denied my GI's prior authorization request for Cimzia, the biologic that has stabilized my Crohn's disease for many years. Unless Care First reverse this denial, I'm likely to end up losing my job and hospitalized. All of my work will stop.
The inspiration to hear or see someone's story perhaps maybe one day you'll be sharing your own story (how I was). Even if it's not public, there are people that certainly resonate. You are not alone. You have community. You have belonging. You have a purpose.

It makes me practically glow with joy to see change happen even if it is slow❤️

And the struggles of getting an accommodation letter, which means having to take time off since my doctor also wants additional lab tests 🙄

Most people cannot conceptualize the idea that disabled people (including young folx) are forced into nursing homes against their will. It must change. But we need accessible housing & high quality well funded HCBS to do it. #OurHomesNotNursingHomes #DemolishDisabledPoverty

I just declared a state of emergency on homelessness to unlock every tool and authority at our disposal to bring unhoused Angelenos inside. This is a matter of life and death and that’s exactly how my administration will treat it. It is a new day in Los Angeles.

This weekend, youth advocate Liat tabled at Pride in CT--featuring brochures, buttons & an entire coloring table! Some people walking by said it was the first intersex representation they'd ever seen at Pride. #IntersexVisibility #Pride2023
Banti is a fearless advocate who has done all of these things & more. Our dream at interACT is to empower even more intersex youth to educate, lead & demonstrate. Can you help us reach our goal of $10,000 this week to grow our youth program? bit.ly/interact-donate #PrideMonth
Our youth program is BACK, with a cohort of several new members learning, teaching & crafting their own advocacy projects. We want to raise $10,000 by the end of this week to support even more #intersex youth! Can you help? bit.ly/interact-donate

I just can't say how bad this "deal" is for poor people and disabled people. Yes, they didn't do "work requirements" on Medicaid, but it was highly unlikely they were going to. Changes to SNAP and TANF with no tax hike on the rich...SMH
THANK YOU to Subject Matter! EVERY BODY represents the power of #intersex leaders speaking their truths, & we at interACT are thrilled to use this grant to support the next generation of intersex leaders.
This year, Subject Matter will award two $25,000 grants to “Breaking the News” and “Every Body”, in support of their audience outreach and impact efforts. See the best of #Tribeca2023 and support the films tackling the big issues with Tribeca’s Z Pass tribecafilm.com/festival/ticke…

Twitter is regularly flagging and hiding our education about intersex youth under claims of "sensitive content." We will fight and appeal this censorship. We have the right to exist openly as #intersex, and so do the young people born with variations in their sex traits.
Banti is an intersex person who loved basketball growing up & their inclusive team. They say all kids deserve to play because "they are beautiful, authentic and courageous. All kids deserve the opportunities and community sports bring!" #LetUsPlay #TransIntersexSolidarity
This is a critical opportunity to advance #disabilityforward housing at @HUDgov! Are you planning on commenting? We have until July 24, 2023!
