Disability Issues Caucus

Officers | Bylaws | Listserv

Over the past quarter of a century life for individuals with disabilities has improved greatly; however, we still have a ways to go to achieve equality and economic security. It is the goal of the Disability Issues Caucus to provide a forum for the discussion of issues relating to disability so that individuals with disabilities may achieve equality and security. The caucus also recognizes that in order to achieve equality and security individuals with disabilities need to participate in all aspects of the political process. It is, therefore, a goal of the caucus to encourage and assist such participation. Finally, the caucus wishes to ensure that the Democratic party and its candidates target and take into account the concerns of individuals with disabilities.

The membership of the caucus is open to people with all forms of disabilities. Membershipis also open to relatives of such individuals and advocates for individuals with disabilities who are registered members of their local Young Democrats organizations and the YDA.
