Today is National Disability Independence Day, the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

In 1990, over 1,000 disabled activists marched from the White House to the Capitol, where many crawled up the building’s 83 steps.

35 years ago today, the ADA was signed into law! This monumental piece of legislation changed the lives of people with disabilities in the US and worldwide, as it sparked a global movement for disability rights. Today, we celebrate how far we've come!
