It's Week of Action SZN!
Welcome to our National Week of Action Against School Pushout!
Beginning October 17th, organizers around the nation call for an end to physical punishment in all schools, everywhere, and to confront the systems that push students out instead of holding them in.

Over the next several posts and days, we're breaking down our national platform that is driving this movement. Follow along, share widely, and find out how to plug in.

This video explores the history of disability rights, the progress that has been made, and the importance of continuing to raise your voice. It is part of the seven-part Raise Your Voice: Succeeding Through Self-Advocacy video series from the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation and Shepherd Center.
