On today’s international day of persons with disabilities, I am so grateful for the accessible sport and recreation options here in Colorado that I’ve been able to enjoy! Everything from water to snow to trails has been so fun, along with meeting incredible people along the way! ♿️👩🏾‍🦽‍➡️#IDPWD #Disability

Collage of outdoor activities involving a woman using a wheelchair. The image is divided into eight sections, each showcasing a different activity: Top row, left to right: 1. A woman in a wheelchair on a wooden bridge surrounded by autumn trees. 2. A woman riding an all-terrain wheelchair on a forest path. 3. The same woman in a wheelchair, aiming a bow and arrow at an archery target. 4. Kayaking on a river, the woman is wearing a life vest and smiling. Bottom row, left to right: 5. A path through the forest with three people, two in wheelchairs, one walking. 6. A close-up selfie of the woman smiling while kayaking, with mountains and water behind her. 7. The woman sitting in her wheelchair near a scenic mountain and forest view, smiling at the camera. 8. On a snowy mountain, the woman is in a wheelchair, wearing snow gear and goggles, with skiers in the background. The images depict diverse outdoor experiences, highlighting accessibility and inclusivity in nature and recreation.

New paper I co-authored is out with Scott Landes, Jean Hall and @bonnieswenor.bsky.social! #Disability

New research makes plain the limitations of existing #DisabilityData measures. #DisabilityHealth researchers can use their recommended limitation statements to explain how ACS6 and WGSS data may not capture all people with disabilities. Read the study #OpenAccess: academic.oup.com/healthaffair...

Feels on today’s 35th anniv of the Americans w Disabilities Act. This resonated: “I know what accessibility can be: an invitation into greater human community, as well as a precious right we must preserve for future generations.” #Disability #ADA35 www.latimes.com/opinion/stor... #Disability #ADA35

Contributor: The Americans With Disabilities Act changed my life. Now my generation needs to fight for it

These are terrifying times for deaf and disabled people in America. Our lives are under threat in ways I never imagined when I was growing up.

Today, more detailed proposed budget docs for FY 2026 were released. This has the details of the President’s budget. This all still has to be reconciled with versions of FY26 budget from the House and Senate too and voted on and passed before it becomes final, but contains a lot more details.
