The disability rights movement lost one of its pioneers today, Judy Heumann. From Camp Jened to the 504 sit-in to serving as the first Special Advisor on International Disability Rights under President Obama, Judy was a lifelong global leader in the disability community.

Today we mourn the incredible loss of Judy Heumann Legacy a mentor and light for so many. We challenge YOU to create access and advocate for disability inclusion in her honor. Get involved, educate yourself. We are all responsible for access. #AllHuemannsForAccess #AccessIsLove

Judy Heumann’s work on Section 504 and beyond inspired accessible education policies around the world. What a devastating loss for the international disability community.
