ADA Action Alert! Need your real-life stories of employment discrimination on the basis of disability

From The Disability Policy Collaboration

The Arc of the United States and United Cerebral Palsy need your compelling, real-life stories of employment discrimination on the basis of disability to help make the case to Congress that the Supreme Court's narrow interpretations of the Americans with Disabilities Act have harmed people with disabilities in employment. It is time to restore the original scope and intent of the ADA!

Click here for more details about this issue and how to send your personal story.

The Arc and UCP, together with the Consortium for Citizens with Disabilities (CCD), will use these personal stories in coming weeks to educate members of Congress about the need for a legislative "fix" to the ADA in a way they can relate to and that can be readily understood. child-autism-parent-cafe.com
