'Robert Martin has been my inspiration. His determination to make change has made a difference in New Zealand and around the world.'
- Nagase Osamu, Secretary General of Inclusion International

May is National Speech-Language-Hearing Month! Communication is essential to our everyday lives. However, some people may not use spoken language. There are many other ways of communicating, each of which is valid and has a place in our society.

With heavy hearts, we mourn Sir Robert Martin, a disability rights champion and pioneer of the self-advocacy movement.

As one of the first self-advocates on our Council and the first CRPD Committee member with an intellectual disability, he raised voices for inclusion globally.

PFC is deeply saddened by the news of the passing of Sir Robert Martin. His life and his work as a disability activist will continue to be an inspiration to all in the intellectual disability community. Our condolences to all who loved him, knew him, respected and admired him.

$200/month is not enough.  $1000 would be better, but still leaves many #pwd below the poverty line.

We support this petition, but would suggest that $1000 be a minimum.
