Who We Are
Living with a disability is challenging because communities are not fully accessible or equitable for the disabled. It is this fact that inspired our founder, Derrick Tuff, to form our organization. It is this truth that motivates us to empower the disabled to live a fulfilling life.
Focus Areas

We are dedicated to helping individuals and families reach their full potential. Using public policy, research, and advocacy, we will work to enhance equality and expand opportunity.

We empower disabled citizens to be politically active by providing research and resources that increase understanding of important issues and laws and give them the tools they need to create change. Every citizen, regardless of ability, must be heard!
