For disability advocate Nikki Villavicencio, the ADA is a foundation, not a finish line.
In her Disability Pride Month reflection, she writes that disability is part of every community and that the world is better because disabled people are here. She considers what becomes possible when disabled people are included from the beginning and trusted to lead, and calls on disabled people and allies to protect rights, build accessibility, and create communities where everyone belongs.
