Celebrate Disability Pride Month in July!

Join us this July as we honor the 35th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and celebrate Disability Pride Month 2026. This year's theme, "The World Works Better With Us," recognizes the power, pride, and contributions of the disability community. We also celebrate expanded financial opportunities for New Mexicans with disabilities through the ABLE Act, which became effective January 1, 2026, empowering individuals to save, invest, and build economic independence without losing public benefits.
