Access for All

Access for All encourages people with disabilities and allies to contact Governor Newsom by phone or email to let him know that people with disabilities need to be prioritized on the vaccine distribution list. Now is the time! Thank you!

(From the CFILC webpage) The California Foundation for Independent Living Centers (CFILC) advocates for the prioritization of people with disabilities and older adults in accessing the COVID-19 vaccine. We value your input! Please consider taking our brief COVID-19 vaccine survey. Your responses are confidential, and they will be used to affect systems change regarding the COVID-19 vaccine distribution. ... Continue to stay safe this new year. Practice social distancing, wash your hands, and remain six feet apart. #Equity #Accessibility #Transparency #Safety

Please join Access for All in celebrating World Braille Day today. Consider how you can help to ensure that information and communication is accessible to blind and low vision individuals. "Observed annually on 4 January, World Braille Day was established by the UN General Assembly in December 2018. The date also marks the birth anniversary of Louis Braille, who at the age of 15, invented the tactile system for reading and writing for use by people who are blind or visually impaired." #WorldBrailleDay

Access for All strives to create a community in which a disability is neutral; a community where services are integrated such that only unique and uncommon accommodations are not readily available. On this #GivingTuesday, please consider a donation to the Access for All Fund and help us make this vision a reality. Visit sloaccessforall.org for more information. #CFSLOCO
