Overview of #TheArcVotes: Your Right to Vote (Webinar 1 of 2)
Voting is one of our most sacred rights. Yet historically, the disabled community has not been well represented at the voting booth. This was due, in part, to lack of accessibility at voting places and limited transportation – challenges that continue for some, but overall have improved greatly.
Having a disability does not cancel your right to vote. Join Jose Lopez, The Arc’s Policy Officer, for a voting rights webinar on Wednesday, August 14, 2024, at 12 P.M. to learn about your options and timelines for voting.
For democracy to succeed, we need people to participate in the process. If we are to continue to make positive changes for the disabled communities we serve, we need informed citizens voting to elect those leaders who best represent their values and priority concerns. To do that, you must vote!
