About Disability Unite
Join our community for events, programs, and a virtual festival this July to celebrate Disability Pride Month! Disability Unite connects partner organizations and people throughout NYC, around the country, and across the world in celebrating Disability Pride and furthering a message of Opportunity, Equity, and Inclusion.
While the platform is called "Disability Unite", we acknowledge and respect that the disability community represents a broad cross-section of groups, communities, and individuals identified by race, ethnicity, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, religion, age, or disability status. Each individual/group will have different opinions and should advocate in whatever way they prefer.
The events on this platform are for the community, by the community. That means all Project Access Partners will be invited to become a partner on the Disability Unite website as well, and have their logo (with a link to their website) shown on the “Community Partners” page to acknowledge their involvement and introduce viewers to their websites and social media.
Led by a Community Working Group, Project Access is an "open" consortium that reflects the ideas and events of the disability community. Project Access for All was launched nationally in 2010 with a Working Group of the Obama Administration. Project Access NYC was launched in 2011 at Gracie Mansion by Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Commissioner Matt Sapolin. Commissioner Sapolin was a founder and first Project Access NYC Co-Chair.
Project Access is not owned by any one institution or individual and aims to reflect the vision of its users through a platform for direct engagement to further opportunity, equality and inclusion throughout the community. Project Access is coordinated by Art Beyond Sight.
🙌 For the Community, By the Community.

🗓️ Unite, celebrate, and organize all July long.
Keep the momentum going through October’s Disability Pride NYC Parade.
Because Love Unites—and We’re All in This Together.
Pride isn’t a moment—it’s a movement. When we show up with pride, organize with power, and demand our rights, we build something bigger than any one moment.
This is what Disability Pride looks like: connection, celebration, justice, and community.
