Disability Laws that Affect Our Lives
This workshop is about rights, disability rights. There are many rights that everyone should have. For example, everyone should have the right to be treated with dignity, or the right to decent housing. On the other hand, there are the rights that we do have. As US citizens, we have many rights that are protected by laws. We need to know what these legal protections are. Only then can we demand our rights with enough power to get them.
In this workshop, participants will become familiar with the three main disability rights laws, and notice how these laws affect our society.
