Starting the year with Mindful Mondays Every Monday, we'll share education rooted in our research. Intersectionality isn't academic—it's survival. Our lives are layered. Our struggles are connected. Justice must meet us where we are.

Limitations are part of being human. Barriers are what society creates when it refuses to accommodate. We're not the problem. Ableism is. And we refuse to be erased.

Safety and dignity are not rewards — they are rights. Disability, trauma, gender diversity, or identity do not diminish anyone’s right to rest, protection, and respect.

Policy sets the conditions for safety. When disability inclusion and LGBTQ plus protections are missing in GBV policy, survivors are placed at risk. We refuse systems that leave disabled and queer survivors outside.

For disabled women who depend on technology to communicate and survive, tech-facilitated violence is especially devastating. Abusers know this. They use spyware, tracking, isolation, and control. Technology should liberate, not entrap.

Twelve percent access is not enough. Survivors should not be locked out of safety. Disabled and queer survivors deserve doors that open, not walls. We gather to change what is possible.

What does Disability Pride mean to you? It’s being part of a community that supports each other. It’s standing up for what’s right in a world that can be unfair. It’s loving and accepting ourselves just the way we are.
