Ever visit a museum and feel like it wasn't built with you in mind? Struggled to read the exhibit text, navigate a gallery space, or find someone who could help — all while being told the place was “accessible”? You're not alone. And change is possible. Maia Scott This week on Pushing Limits, we're joined by Maia Scott, a blind educator and disability advocate who's working to transform how museums serve people with disabilities. Maia recently launched her own consulting business that focuses on partnering with museums and other cultural institutions to break down barriers whether they are physical or systemic. She brings her lived experience and creative insight to the conversation, sharing how inclusive design, tactile access, better signage, and staff training can open doors — not just for disabled folks, but for everyone. Whether you're someone who's felt excluded from these spaces, or you work in one and want to do better, this is a conversation you don't want to miss. This episode of Pushing Limits is hosted by Bonnie Elliott, produced by Jacob Lesner-Buxton, and edited by Denny Daughters.

Does the very system that supports you hold you back? There are a plethora of concerns regarding this administration and Social Security. Social Security is a life and death support in our community. Accordingly, disabled advocates have tried to improve Social Security for literally decades with limited success. We don't have a choice, as we defend this Social Security, we must work to improve it. Did you know Social Security resource limits haven't been updated since 1989? The SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act has been sitting in Congress for a year and a half. Why? On this week's Pushing Limits program, we learn more about producer Denny Daughters' experiences with Social Security. Joining us as we share our frustrations and lived experiences is another blind friend and podcast producer, Kevin Wassmer. Plus, producer Dominick Trevethan shares the financial constraints the current SSI income limits place on him as someone who relies on Medicaid services to live an independent life. From absurd income caps to the hoops we jump through just to survive — we get real about what needs to change. This program was hosted and produced by Dominick Trevethan with editing assistance from Denny Daughters. For more Information on the SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act, click here.

In California, 2.3 million people are covered by Medicaid. In addition to covering medical care, the program also helps with transportation costs, in-home care, and access to other community support for persons with disabilities and older adults. But that support is in jeopardy. Currently, Congress is trying to cut this program by $800 billion, which would lead to a major reduction in services. Our guest on this week's program of Pushing Limits is healthcare advocate and Youtuber Jane Hash. She will talk about the impact of those cuts on her and other people with disabilities. Plus, Hash will speak frankly about how people with disabilities are struggling to survive in a country that doesn't adequately fund the services we need. This episode of Pushing Limits is written and produced by Jacob Lesner-Buxton. It is hosted and edited by Dominick Trevethan with assistance by Adrienne Lauby and Denny Daughters.

A vital legal protection for people with disabilities is under attack. But a coalition from 15 states is fighting back, filing a lawsuit to stop the Trump administration's attempt to gut Section 504 of the federal code. This crucial regulation has been a cornerstone in the battle against discrimination in employment, housing, and more. Claudia Center, legal director at the Disability Rights and Education Defense Fund, joins us to break down what's at stake and how this legal battle could impact the rights of millions. Tune in to Pushing Limits this Friday at 2:30 PM to learn more about the fight to preserve Section 504 and what you can do to support disability rights. This program is hosted and produced by Edward Ytuarte. The post The Legal Fight for Section 504 – Pushing Limits – March 21, 2025 appeared first on KPFA.

Despite epilepsy being the fourth most common neurological condition, affecting one in twenty-six people globally, there's a widespread lack of awareness surrounding this disability. This is in large part due to its low visibility in daily life. Many individuals living with epilepsy exhibit little to no visible symptoms that would signal their epilepsy to the people around them. Such is the case with the two guests on this week's program, Hanna Wight and Mary Cadd. When most people think of a seizure, they typically associate it with what is called a “Grand Mal Seizure,” which involves a complete loss of consciousness and motor control. However, as we explore in this program, seizures and other epileptic events affect individuals in a myriad of ways. In this conversation, we explore how Hanna and Mary navigate their personal and professional lives while living with Epilepsy. This condition affects relationships, work, driving, and many other aspects of our guests' daily lives. Mary and Hanna both advocate for increased empathy and awareness of this disability. It is important for the public to know how to respond effectively while being non-intrusive when someone has a seizure. This program was hosted and produced by Jacob Stanton with audio editing by Denny Daughters and Dominick Trevethan.

If you are not worried about programs that come from the Federal government, you are not paying attention. Supports for people with disabilities are on the chopping block, everything from Food Stamps to Meals on Wheels to Social Security and Medi-Care. All of it is under threat from the heavy hand of Elon Musk. For our brothers and sisters overseas, these threats became a nightmare in actuality with the Trump Administration's “Stop Work” order for all International Aid on January 28. Disabled children lost the ability to attend school at the same time food supplies were cut. It's been a disaster for disabled refugees, disability organizations, and many others. We talk with Peter Fremlin Torres about what his international contacts told him about the effect of this order. There have been legal challenges and protests in support of the staff at the USAID agency, but in many countries outside the U.S., the damage is real and likely to spread. Join us to learn more about the billionaire's war on disabled people around the world. Peter Torres Fremlin is a disabled man who writes the weekly Disability Debrief newsletter which is archived at disabilitydebrief.org. He's spent 10 years studying, working, and language-learning in Brazil, Bangladesh, Switzerland, and Egypt. He currently resides in Colchester, England, where he grew up.

Welcome back to Trump's America and another round of attacks against people with disabilities. In the past week we saw Trump try to blame our community for the crash of American Eagle Flight 534. Trump's comments came less than 48 hours after his administration tried to freeze federal funding for many disability organizations, as well as programs like Medi-Cal and Section 8.  With all this chaos, it's understandable if you want to hide in the bedroom watching reality television for the next four years. Nieta Greene However, this Friday at 2:30 PM, Nieta Greene has another idea! She'll be encouraging people with disabilities to resist Trump‘s policies on KPFA's Pushing Limits program. Green is the founder and CEO of Disability Community for Democracy. She works to get organizations and policymakers to consider the needs of persons with disabilities. This new organization is dedicated to preserving, protecting, and defending liberal democracy and disability rights. On March 1st, the group will host a protest on zoom to push back against Trump's policies. Additionally, the organization advocates alongside public officials to do a better job at encouraging voters with disabilities to run for public office. Plus, we will hear from the next generation of truth-tellers as Josh Elwood interviews people with disabilities who are learning how to produce radio through a KPFA internship program. Thanks to grant support from Berkeley City College, Clayton Pedersen and Jess Hutcheson are gaining valuable work experience in the fields they would like to pursue – music and talk radio.

When tough times fall on us, we often learn who is really in our corner. However, if Dominick & Uriel push came to shove, would you trust your friend to help you use the restroom? Would they even be willing to do so? On this program of Pushing Limits, one of our very own producers shares his experiences in this exact situation along with his IHSS provider and best-friend. Join us as Dominick Trevethan and Uriel Ruelas discuss their unique friendship. They will be sharing all of the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) that Dominick needs help with, how they navigate the nuances of a friendship and work-dynamic, as well as their thoughts on the current state of IHSS. Should family members be paid nearly minimum wage to care for loved ones? Tune in to hear Dominick and Uriel's thoughts. This program was hosted and produced by Dominick Trevethan.

January is a month often filled with new gym membership, NFL playoffs, and even snow. Before COVID, we didn't associate it with debilitating and devastating illnesses, but COVID-19 changed that. In January of 2020, “Joyful” Joni Gold was the fourth person in her small community to get covid and, for her, this month will never be the same. Living in Los Osos, California with a population of 14,485, Joni faced life-threatening challenges. In a community with few medical providers, she needed quality care. As someone in a nation with little understanding of the disease, she needed advice and support. Now, living with long covid, Joni talks about her experience and how her spirituality helps her live with her disability. On top of hearing from jovial Joni, we have a commentary from Pushing Limits collective member Adrienne Lauby on COVID, unity, and Mr. Trump. Stay tuned! This episode of Pushing Limits is written and produced by Jacob Lesner-Buxton. It is hosted and edited by Denny Daughters.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to take care of someone else with major physical needs? Just like any relationship, the caregiver-patient relationship is a two-way street. Usually we bring you the voice of the “patient” on our program, but today we're mixing it up. During the interview, Dean talks about his clients. Some of them have different mobility disabilities; others have diseases like Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's Disease, and various injuries.

Self-advocacy by people with intellectual and developmental disabilities has become a big part of the disability movement's approach to this part of our community. Essentially it means that people with intellectual and developmental disabilities can and should be supported to speak for themselves, help make policy, serve on boards, and more. Sadly, too often organizations use the term “Self Advocate” simply to get grants or “street cred”. Today's guest, Brittanie Hernandez-Wilson, helped make Self-Advocacy more than a “buzz word” when she was the Equity and Justice Director, at the ARC Minnesota. Hear her explain what it takes to transform disability organizations into places that are truly representative of and accountable to the communities they serve. This program was produced by Jacob Lesner-Buxton, hosted by Shelley Berman, and edited by Denny Daughters and Dominick Trevethan.

Erin Nguyen Neff You may be fortunate enough to live somewhere where strong advocacy by tenant groups has taken away a landlord's ability to throw you out of your home for any reason whatsoever.  It's called “Just Cause Protection.” Sonoma County and Antioch recently adopted Just Cause ordinances and Alameda County has had Just Cause protection for many years. But, even with this protection, evictions still happen. Someday you may be the person who wakes up to a three-day eviction notice tacked to your door. If that happens, we want you to be prepared. That's why, today, we're covering the procedure known as an Unlawful Detainer. That's another piece of paper that may land on your door. This one offers you a day in court after you get a 3-day eviction notice. Our guest, Erin Neff, is an expert in these court hearings. They have defended families at risk of eviction from some of the worst landlords in New York City. They are an experienced attorney in housing law in support of the disability community, and they work for the Disability Rights Education and Defense Fund, known as DREDF. Erin Neff will explain what it means for a person with a disability to have their day in court. And, we'll also spend some time exploring the legal situation for someone with a Section 8 voucher. This program is hosted and produced by Eddie Ytuarte. More about Erin Nguyen Neff: As a Senior Staff Attorney at DREDF, Erin Nguyen Neff primarily focuses on civil rights cases, impact litigation, and policy advocacy for people with disabilities. They began their career as a tenant lawyer for the Legal Aid Society in Brooklyn. Erin has also worked at California Rural Legal Assistance and the Law Foundation of Silicon Valley, where she was the Lead Policy Attorney for their Housing Program. With housing rights and policy as a predominant focus throughout Erin's career, they believe housing is a human right – and the decommodification of housing is necessary to uphold that right. They completed their undergraduate degree in psychology at George Mason University and their law degree at the American University, Washington College of Law, where they were an editor for the Journal of Gender, Social Policy, and the Law. Erin is licensed to practice law in both the state of New York and California. The post Eviction: Your Day in Court – Pushing Limits – November 15, 2024 appeared first on KPFA.

When you think of professional athletes, some of the names that come to mind may include the likes of LeBron James, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Tom Brady. However, athletes living with disabilities can be just as impressive as their able-bodied counterparts, yet they don't seem to get the same level of attention. So in an effort to change this, on today's program we are talking with a national power soccer champion. Ulices Arreola is a twenty-year-old who starts at wing for the LA Galaxy Power Soccer Club. Last year, he was invited to join the national team in Indiana, where him and his team went on to win the tournament. Accordingly, this program explores the state of the sport of power soccer, what it's like to go to nationals, as well as address the stigma that differentiates adaptive sports from more typical sports. GOOOOOOOOAL! This program was produced and hosted by Dominick Trevethan.

The rise of right-wing power in the U.S. is the culmination of a 50 year plan to seize the reins of government power in the U.S. It has succeeded in the Supreme Court and, who knows, could take the Presidency and both House and Senate at Tuesday's election. As the plan becomes actualized, the Heritage Foundation has gifted us with the next step – a plan for a radical restructuring of our legal and regulatory bodies written in a document called Project 2025. Unless you are inclined to policy wonky-ness, it's hard to tell how the Project 2025 changes could affect people with disabilities.  Fortunately for us, our guest for this program has the knowledge and experience to translate these bureaucratic maneuvers into the devilish details that are set to make our lives much more difficult. Claudia Center is the Legal Director of Disability Rights Education and Defense Fund (DREDF). She litigates cases that increase civil rights and civil liberties for persons with disabilities, and represents the disability community in legislative, policy, amicus, and appellate work. Claudia Center Project 2025 lays out drastic cuts to Medi-Caid (MediCal), the end of equity in K-12 schooling for disabled kids, less eligible injuries for Veteran services, and so much more. Halloween will be over by the time this program airs but it's not too late to be very scared. Want to know more?  Our community members are working to make it easy for you: 1.

When we think of disability, we often associate it with stereotypical signifiers such as wheelchairs, handicap placards, and walking canes. We see these things when we are in public and they communicate to us that the person these things belong to lives with a disability. But, what happens when we don't see these signifiers That is exactly what we're going to get into on this week's program. Our guest this week is Theresa Rodgers and she lives with three invisible disabilities. They include Epstein-Barr Virus, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and a MTHFR Gene mutation. She will explain how each of these disabilities impact her in ways that nobody sees, including her work as a writer. Theresa also touches on how society treats those with invisible disabilities as though they are able bodied. This program was produced and hosted by Jacob Stanton with editing assistance from Denny Daughters and Dominick Trevethan.

This Saturday, the longest running disability film festival in the world begins. Whether online or in person, you're sure to see diverse, unabashed and engaging cinema. In the two decades of Pushing Limits, we've watched the ethos of disability organizing from the 1970s be embraced by a new generation of disabled cultural workers and organizations. Superfest's parent, the Longmore Institute at S.F. State, with its new disability cultural center is one keeper of these flames. Our guest this week, Dr. Emily Beitiks, interim director for the Longmore Institute, has seen these happy developments close and personal. Eddie Ytuarte hosts. SUPERFEST Superfest Disability Film Festival is coming October 17-20, and whether you are joining in person in the Bay Area or online anywhere in the world, you need to be a part of it! Superfest is the longest running disability film festival in the world. Since 1970, it has celebrated cinema that portrays disability through a diverse, unabashed and engaging lens, and we can't wait to come together as a community to take in this much-loved disability cultural event for its 38th festival, hybrid for the second year, with new levels of access. EMILY BEITIKS: Emily Beitiks received a Ph.D. in American Studies with a focus in Disability Studies at the University of Minnesota. She has served as adjunct faculty at five universities, centering disability studies in her curriculum. Dr. Emily Beitiks From 2012 to the present, she has worked at the Longmore Institute on Disability at San Francisco State University, serving as Interim Director for three years. While there, she developed her praxis as a scholar-activist of disability to promote creative forms of access for the arts and generate spaces that promote disability culture, serving as project director for a touring exhibition “Patient No More,” and serving as co-director of Superfest Disability Film Festival. She exists in this world because her mother's sudden disability diagnosis prompted her to have a child, and her first-hand experiences of disability have grown throughout her 20 years of experience working in the disability community. 2024 Superfest Disability Film Festival Flyer The post Superfest & The Longmore Institute – Pushing Limits – October 18, 2024 appeared first on KPFA.

Project 2025 calls for massive changes in our government, and as usual, massive change would bring massive problems for people with disabilities. We talk about the hidden, and not so hidden, effect of this plan on our community. Project 2025, created by the Heritage Foundation has been called the blueprint for the next Trump administration. Within the document's 900+ pages are calls for banning abortion, dismantling Medicare, taking down the Department of Education and giving the president the power to fire government employees who aren't loyal to him. Gianna Lacofano Today we will hear perspectives on Project 2025 from four people with disabilities. Gianna Lacofano and Amanda Harrinauth will discuss the plan's possible impact on people with autism, such as themselves. Donna Regal and Judy Jackon will also discuss the document from the perspective of an older adult with chronic health conditions. Additionally, Pushing Limits collective members will discuss what Project 2025 says about people with disabilities.

How would you live your life if you knew you were going to die by the time you were 30? Would that affect the choices you make, the relationships you have, the way you look at every day? Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a degenerative neuromuscular condition that is the number one genetic killer of babies. It is extremely rare and the probability of being born with it is about 0.0001. On today's program, we're going to learn all about this disease that until recently was not even being tested for. Joining us is a 25-year-old entrepreneur and social media influencer, Victor Guerra. Victor lives with type two SMA and has made it his life's mission to be a successful entrepreneur and SMA advocate. We will be talking with him about what it's like to live knowing you won't live a “normal life” and that you probably will not live past 30 years old. Want to learn more about SMA?

Spoiler alert: the world is inaccessible. Often, those in the disability community and with access needs struggle to go where they want to when they want to. We often have our entire days planned out around our needs. Additionally, it's difficult to decide to go somewhere if you don't know how accessible it is. Our guest today is making an effort to fix this problem by using technology. Elysia Everett Elysia Everett is a technologist and founder of the free to use app and website, Friendly Like Me. Her app is review-based; it is similar to yelp, but specifically designed for people with access needs to use to rate and review businesses based on their accessibility. With a career in technology and law in her back pocket, she feels she is uniquely qualified to tackle this issue with the disability community. Listen in as she describes her inspiration for starting Friendly Like Me, as well as the conversations that she has one on one with business owners. As she says, the biggest issue that she comes across is a lack of understanding, whether it be on an airline or within the walls of a brick-and-mortar building. Additionally, if you would like to hear the full conversation after this program, feel free to listen to it on the podcast, The Disability Myth. This program is hosted and produced by Dominick Trevethan. The post Friendly Like Me – Pushing Limits – August 23, 2024 appeared first on KPFA.

Well, it's time to dust off the old philosophy of ethics textbook. This week's program takes a look at the Eugenics movement in the United States with Michael Rembis, Director of the Center for Disabilities at the University at Buffalo. Michael Rembis According to his profile on the University at Buffalo's website, “Rembis' research interests include the history of institutionalization, mad people's history, and the history of eugenics. He has also studied and written about contemporary issues concerning mental health and mental illness and mass incarceration.” Eugenicists frequently posed people with disabilities and non-white people as inferior, with devastating consequences including incarceration in institutions, and forced sterilization. Even ‘Progressive' individuals backed various forms of the Eugenics movement. The Nazi regime under Hitler was influenced by American Eugenicists. Additionally, although Eugenics still has continuing effects, this week's program will explore how the disability community has mobilized in combating this destructive movement. This program is hosted by Edward Ytuarte. The post Disability & Eugenics – Pushing Limits – August 16, 2024 appeared first on KPFA.

Becoming a lawyer is probably one of the most difficult professions one could choose to pursue. For example, one must overcome a character and fitness exam as well as the notorious BAR exam. Now, imagine dedicating countless hours to studying law, fueled by a passion for justice and a dream of becoming an attorney, all while knowing that an unseen barrier could shatter that dream. This Friday, join us for a compelling and eye-opening program featuring Val U Baul French, a law student from Kansas who identifies as neurodivergent. Val U Baul French Val will share their journey through the demanding world of law school, shedding light on the unique challenges and instances of aversive ableism they face as a student with a disability. Tune in as Val discusses the very real possibility that, despite their hard work and dedication, their path to becoming a lawyer could be blocked if the bar association questions their mental competence. Don't miss this important conversation about resilience, advocacy, and the fight for inclusivity in the legal profession. This program is hosted by Talia Thompson-Mariano, produced by Jacob Lesner-Buxton, and edited by Dominick Trevethan and Denny Daughters.

Are you ready to dive into some of the most crucial legal battles impacting the disability community today? On this week's program we welcome back Michelle Uzeta, a staff attorney from the Disability Rights Education and Defense Fund, to break down landmark cases that could reshape the landscape of disability rights in America. In Grants Pass, the United States Supreme Court ruled that fining and jailing people experiencing homelessness for sleeping outside when they have nowhere else to go is not unconstitutional. Accordingly, she will be updating us on Guthrey v. Alta California Regional Center, a ruling that will decide whether regional centers and their vendors are subject to the anti-discrimination provisions of the ADA.

What comes to mind when you think of mental health? Therapy? Trauma? Disability? If you happen to think of all three than this program is for you. According to the CDC, “Adults with disabilities report experiencing frequent mental distress almost 5 times as often as adults without disabilities”. Who better suited to help disabled individuals navigate those unique challenges than those who also share them? On this episode of Pushing Limits, we will be talking to two mental health professionals who have disabilities. Kit Mcmillion is a peer support specialist who uses her lived experiences with mental health challenges to assist others. We will also talk to Jennifer Lincoln, a trauma therapist with cerebral palsy and spinal stenosis. Additionally, Pushing Limits collective member Shelley Berman will provide a commentary on mental illness related to her family. This episode is hosted by Bonnie Elliot and produced by Jacob Lesner-Buxton with editing from Denny Daughters.

For a disabled person who needs a ride, paratransit sounds great. You call them up, someone comes in a wheelchair accessible van and away you go! But, the reality is not that simple! Despite the fact that more vehicles are used for paratransit than any other type of public transportation, a plethora of issues plague paratransit services. What happens when your paratransit pickup is late and you're late for the meeting? What happens if your driver drastically exceeds the speed limit? And, why are so many of the vans so poorly maintained? According to a bus service in Rochester N.Y., “paratransit is a shared ride public service intended to serve as a safety net.”  It's for “individuals who, because of their disabilities, are unable to ride the ADA compliant RTS {Regional Transit Services] fixed-route bus for some or all their travel”. But, is the safety net really that safe? Nearly 70 thousand vehicles were available for typical peak paratransit services in the U.S. in 2013 – more than all the buses and trains combined. So, why isn't paratransit a shining star in the lives of people with disabilities? Helping us navigate all these complexities and more is disability advocate Christine Fitzgerald. More specifically, she is the community advocate for Silicon Valley's Independent Living Center. As a member serving on the Committee for Transportation and Mobility Access, she works at the local, state, and governmental levels to ensure that people with disabilities have their access and transportation needs met.

On a progressive college or university campus, we might assume students with disabilities are well served. But, around the county, we often hear a different story. In this program we look to a disabled leader of a local center for answers: What is the role of a campus disability resource center? How can they improve their services? How dedicated are institutions of higher learning to success for a quarter of their students? Students with disabilities in educational settings have unique and individualized needs that must be addressed to ensure their academic success. These accommodations are crucial for enabling students to thrive in their studies alongside their non-disabled peers. As courses evolve to become universally accessible to all students, the reliance on specific accommodations will diminish. Additionally, it is essential to recognize the importance of disability advocacy and awareness both within the campus community and in broader society when considering the current state of disability. So, how dedicated are institutions of higher learning to a quarter of the demographic? Kimberly Starke – Dean of the Disabled Resources Department at Santa Rosa Junior College Offering her insights from the institution side today is Kimberly Starke, Dean of the Disabled Resources Department at Santa Rosa Junior College. Prior to overseeing this department, Kimberly worked with students as a Speech-Language Pathologist and has over 16 years of experience working with the disability community.

The war in Gaza has captured the attention of much of the world, and unfortunately, it seems there is no end in sight. The Pushing Limits gang realizes that these catastrophic events occurring most heavily impact the disability community–and worse yet, are creating new disabilities with each passing hour. On today's program, we invite you to join us for true, real-time stories of people with disabilities trying to survive an ongoing genocide as we host Elizabeth Johnson Sellers from the international organization, Humanity and Inclusion to discuss what is happening to the disability community in Gaza. Elizabeth holds a B.S. from Murray State University, where her studies focused on journalism and marketing. This program is hosted and produced by Eddie Ytuarte. Here's more factoids: Humanity & Inclusion and its partners in Gaza have provided aid to more than 3,500 people since October 7. They focus on people with disabilities. Their office, located in the Rimal neighborhood in Gaza City, was destroyed in an Israeli bombing strike on January 31.

Young person typing braille by George Williams Why should blind children learn to read braille? Given the amazing rise of audio books and audio screen readers, is braille a technology of the past? Our guest Mike Tanner answers these questions with a resounding “No” and, in this week's program, makes the case for braille literacy. Most people gain literacy as children, which means parents have a strong role to play in researching their children's needs and advocating for them with their school district. But, braille isn't a total solution. Mike talks about the cost of hard copy braille and explains why it is so expensive. He reminds us that one way to negotiate these problems is to use the many resources of the National Library Service For The Blind And Print Disabled. What does the future of braille technology hold? Find out this week on Pushing Limits, KPFA's program by and about people with disabilities. Mike Tanner teaches visually impaired students in Southern California. He holds a BA degree in mathematics and a Masters Degree in Special Education. This program was hosted, edited and produced by Denny Daughters.

Sophia Lee-Park What is a disability advocate? How does advocacy look in this day and age with the role that media and smartphones play? How does someone advocate effectively while simultaneously negotiating and managing their own unique identities?

Joining us is Sophia Lee-Park, a disability justice advocate and accessibility educator. Sophia earned her bachelor's degree in sociology from UCSB and recently graduated from USC with a master's degree in post secondary affairs and schooling administration.

It is the height of California's annual budget wrangle, and Governor Newsom is planning severe cuts to programs we depend on. These programs include In Home Supportive Services, CalFresh, nutrition support, housing & homeless assistance, and others. It's pretty dire. We have until June 15, just two more weeks, to let our Sacramento representatives know how we want tax payer money spent. Scroll down for something you can do TODAY. We bring a panel of experts from San Francisco's HomeBridge: Erin Saberi, public policy and communications consultant, Amber Harris, senior director of talent and people, and Meaghan Shanahan, senior director of programs.  Home Bridge trains and provides care givers and attendants for elderly and disabled people throughout the bay area. Erin Saberi There is a crisis in attendant care in California. These folks know just how bad it is and how these budget discussions will either help  – or make it worse. Some context: California has had a fat purse for several years but, this year, the purse is skinny with a $27.6 billion dollar shortfall. As usual, one thing that isn't being cut is California's prison system. It's being tinkered with but it's actually getting an overall increase! Our community is not taking these cuts lying down. Since the draft budget came out in January, lobbyists, non-profits and many disabled people have been in Sacramento to testify at hearings and hold rallies.  There's just enough time, just enough momentum to turn the tide and save ourselves from some of the worst consequences. One more thing:  There's an inevitable level of competition in the budget fight. It's tricky to lobby for any particu Amber Harris lar program.  For instance, if you argue for expanding IHSS caregivers you might find yourself arguing against houses for homeless people. You argue for Developmental Disability increases and find yourself arguing against help for abused elders. We salute two organizations who've made long term coalitions to take some sting out of the competition.  The California Collaborative for Long Term Services and Supports has over 60 organizational members and CURB, Californians United for a Responsible Budget, brings more than 80 organizations together. They help make the best of a tough situation.  Emergency Budget Rally  Governor Newson is trying to cut critical services for undocumented people, people with disabilities, and older adults. Join us to fight back! Governor Newsom: Hands Off Our Home Care! Thursday, June 6, 11:00 am 455 Golden Gate, San Francisco Masks required & provided ————————————————————– Take Action Today!  Make some calls, write some emails. HERE'S WHAT TO SAY: My name is ___________ and I am a (senior, immigrant, person with a disability).  I am very concerned about the incredibly harsh cuts proposed in the Governor's proposed May Revised Budget.  The elimination of the IHSS benefit for undocumented Californians on Medi-Cal is extremely harmful, and sends a message that California is turning its back on immigrant, older adult and disabled communities – and will surely end up with more expensive institutional care. Meaghan Shanahan The other cuts to food security, developmental disability, housing and homeless programs, APS, and other Older Adult Act programs will take us backwards. California enacted a Master Plan on Aging that looks to expand programs and services to address our state's aging population.  Let's look to the rainy day fund and other sources to move us forward, and protect our most vulnerable populations.  Thank you.

In recent years companies, nonprofits and government agencies have invested time and money to start DEI initiatives. These DEI trainings and other activities often focus on issues of race, gender and sexual orientation, while disability goes unaddressed. Jennifer Chassman Browne In this program, we talk with Jennifer Chassman Browne, a DEI consultant with a disability. Jennifer talks about her work with companies and schools throughout the U.S. and speculates why disability is overlooked in many DEI programs. We will also play audio from a short video produced by the Ford Foundation that features activists talking about the interaction between the disability community and other social justice movements.

Join Pushing Limits as we explore the subject of harm reduction. Advocates of these practices believe that the government should provide services to assist those to do drugs in the safest way possible. These services may include needle exchange, overdose prevention sites, and the legalization of substances. These services have been shown to be effective. However, some politicians believe that people who use drugs shouldn't have access to services like affordable housing until they stop using drugs.   Alli Lazarus Our guests include Alli Lazarus of the San Francisco AIDS Foundation and Shannon Knox, the Executive Director of the San Francisco Drug Users Union. They discuss the state of harm reduction in the city and beyond. Additionally, Alli who lives with a disability herself, talks about some of the challenges her clients with disabilities face, specifically whether attendants can assist people engaging in the use of drugs.  Both of our guests give their takes on the issue of whether drug users should be considered disabled under the ADA as well.   This program is produced by Jacob Lesner-Buxton, and hosted and edited by Denny Daughters with production assistance from Jacob Stanton.

(U.S. Air Force photo by Cynthia Griggs). Landlords still tell people with disabilities that they cannot have their service dogs or other service animals in their homes. They continue to disregard state and federal laws or — perhaps they are just plain ignorant.
