Undervalued, Underestimated, and Unseen

Here at the ACL, we are working daily to build inclusive communities that enhance and embrace the lives of our neighbors, friends, coworkers, and family members with Intellectual and Developmental disabilities. One of the biggest hurdles we encounter is the mass of misinformation and misunderstanding about people with disabilities. This month (and every month!) we are helping our community “Learn the Truth” about people with Intellectual and Developmental disabilities to create a new narrative that strengthens our community through diversity. Take a look at these videos below and consider what you can do to help strengthen our community.
