July is Disability Pride Month, an annual celebration of disability identity and the anniversary of the Americans with Disability Act (ADA). This years theme, “The World Works Better With Us”, was selected by the Arc’s National Council of Self-Advocates (NCSA), and is representative of the fact that “when people with disabilities are included, respected, and supported, communities work better for everyone”. Here at Sac State, our Disability Access Center (Lassen Hall 1008) works collaboratively across campus to ensure students with disabilities have equal education access.
