If you’re looking for a way to make a meaningful difference in your community, consider becoming an ally for people with disabilities by joining local committees and commissions that focus on their needs. David Allgood works directly with individuals with disabilities, and has learned that one of the most impactful ways to support this community is by actively participating in efforts that address their concerns and improve their quality of life.
In Louisville, people with disabilities make up the 2nd largest minority group, and they are the largest minority group in both Kentucky and across the United States. Their voices matter, and through collaboration, feedback, and engagement you can better understand the challenges people living with disabilities face. Together, find solutions that create more inclusive environments.
By joining committees and commissions, you can help amplify the voices of the disability community, advocate for their rights, and contribute to initiatives that make our city, state, and country more accessible for everyone. Together, we can ensure that people with disabilities are not only heard but are also supported in ways that enable them to thrive.
Your involvement can make a significant difference—let’s work together to create a more inclusive society for all.
