As part of the bountiful diversity in Southern Arizona, the Tucson Disability Pride Day Celebrates:
- Disability – Who we are, How we are
- The power and beauty of disability art and activism
- Our allies who follow our lead to support our self-determination, inclusion, and independence/interdependence
Southern Arizona Adaptive Sports (SAAS) agrees to continue as the fiscal sponsor of Disability Pride Day 2024. SAAS appreciates this continued partnership with Ward 2, the office of Council Member Paul Cunningham, and is proud to be part of this special event.
Disability Pride Day coincides with the International Day of Persons with Disabilities. This United Nations initiative was created to promote the rights and well-being of persons with disabilities in all spheres of society. To increase awareness of the circumstances of individuals with disabilities in every aspect of political, social, economic and cultural life.
Tucson’s Disability Pride Day activities will include disabled artists of all types, adaptive sports demonstrations, local advocates and activists, a keynote address and a panel discussion.
Our planning committee is working hard to bring you another great event this year. While things are still in flux, we are excited to share a draft itinerary. Check back regularly for updates.
