This #WomensHistoryMonth we're celebrating the change-makers who push us forward.
Judy Heumann was an internationally recognized Disability Rights Activist, known as the “Mother of the Disability Rights Movement.” She's celebrated for her role in developing and passing some of the most important disability rights legislation in American history.
As a child Judy was denied the right to attend school — and later to become an educator — because of her wheelchair use. Both injustices galvanized her life-long commitment to the fight for equal rights for Americans with disabilities.
