Happy Disability Pride Month from Therapeutic Health Services’ True Ability Employee Resource Group!
What is Disability Pride?
Disability Pride Awareness in the workplace honors the contributions, talents and identities of individuals who are disabled. It promotes a culture of inclusion and challenges stigma and ableism and reinforces our commitment to accessibility, equity and respect for all.
Red: Physical Disabilities
Yellow: Cognitive and Intellectual Disabilities
White: Invisible and Undiagnosed Disabilities
Blue: Mental Illness
Green: Sensory Disabilities
Black: Mourning for those who have died not only as a result of their disabilities but also due to ableist violence, eugenics, and suicide.
