Get Out and #ExploreNature in #NewJersey

"Find an #Accessible #Park or #NaturalArea

We’ve compiled a directory of parks and natural and scenic areas throughout the state that are accessible for people with disabilities. We’ve included trails and nature sites that have firm and even surfaces for individuals with #mobility concerns, #BrailleTrails and #AudioResources for #blind or #LowVision visitors, nature sites that offer #InclusiveProgramming, sites with #AdaptiveAmenities, and equipment to make visitor experiences more enjoyable. We are evaluating and adding new sites, so be sure to check back or sign up for email updates."

Well, that about wraps up #SolarPunkSunday. Next week I'll be posting about #Homeremedies for #BugBites and other issues, and will also focus on #DisabilityInclusion in #SolarPunk. I might do another location focus as well. Keep your eyes out for a poll with some possible locations. Boosting related posts and re-posting a few things. TY to everyone who participated, especially @MaQuest !

💪🏾 Adaptive HIIT: Fitness for Every Body

First time training with these ⭐️ rockstars — Dan, Casey, Pranav, and Whitman — all adults with I/DD (intellectual and/or developmental disabilities). And they came ready to work.

We met at the Fitness Court in Malden, and this wasn’t a light session. They took on ball slams, 🔥 battle ropes, pushups, partner drills, deep breathing, stretching, and a full HIIT circuit. Their effort, focus, and teamwork were incredible.

🙏🏽 Thank you to Janis for coordinating this and I am grateful to be part of their journey.

We are stronger together. 💯

@benjamincox

I have a disabled family member who could not possibly work, who lives in a constant state of anxiety, if not terror, of losing their only meagre income.

It makes me furious. I hate feeling so helpless, but short of winning the lottery, there's not much I can do.

This is all I need today!
When I noticed that there was no online attendance option for Chloé Hayden's tour, I reached out. Chloe's Mum (Sarah), was kind enough to look into this for me.
Although it was not achievable this time, Sarah advised that they will now be offering online attendance as an option for events going forward.

I love it when event organisers; who had overlooked live-streams as a mechanism to inclusion, act on feedback and commit to removing such barriers to participation. Even better when they actively acknowledge your contribution and encourage you to continue the fight for better disability inclusion.

Will you now make the same commitment?

#TopicTuesday Long Read: Disability Inclusion within Brimbank.
My first question raided at this months council meeting was as follows:
“Brimbank's 2022-2026 Disability Action Plan was released around 4 months ago, yet there is no reference to Neurodivergent people (other than reference to a symbol identifier), let alone any planning to ensure their inclusion in our community. Neurodivergent people should not need to wait until 2026 before their barriers to inclusion in Brimbank events will be considered, so what action is Brimbank City Council taking, to ensure their inclusion is possible at council run events?”
