Disability Pride Month is a celebration of disability identity, community, and advocacy. Historically, ableist ideas of disability have been socially constructed as the truth, where disability is seen as something shameful to be hidden from public space. Disability Pride is a response and counteraction against these ableist social stigmas, placing the autonomy of disabled identity into the hands of people with disability to define.
We would like to acknowledge and pay respect to the Noongar people, the traditional custodians of the land upon which ECU's campuses stand and programs operate.
