Tis the season to be inclusive ✨

This time of year can be filled with much joy and happiness but for those with chronic illnesses and disabilities it can also bring added stress and loneliness if gatherings aren’t inclusive.

The inaccessibility struggles we face on a daily basis are heightened this time of year as friends, family, coworkers, have get togethers which can be very fun but only if it’s inclusive for everyone!

Here are a few ways you can be inclusive this holiday season! 🩵🎁🍽️

* Invite your chronically ill and disabled friends! We want to be included
* Inform your guest of the menu and ask/offer to make some of their safe foods. Also make sure they feel comfortable bringing their own food, however that looks for them
* Make note of the accessible entrance, make sure food, gifts, etc are low & within reach
* Accessible gift wrapping options such as bags or thin wrapping paper depending on preference
* Ask your guests if the house temperature is okay or needs to be adjusted as some people’s bodies do not regulate temperature
* Offer to get an accessible uber/lyft/any other mode of transportation that’s preferred
* Be kind/open if someone brings their caregiver, offer a plate/include them in activities (if they want to be), make sure there’s space for them
* Make FaceTime or zoom available if someone isn’t able to be there in person
* Offer a quiet room/space to take a break
* Offer help but don’t force help

If you have any other suggestions on how to be more inclusive this season, please share in the comments!🤍

The University of Texas has committed to a 10-year plan to make the campus ADA compliant. However, no student will be on this campus for the full duration of that timeline. This plan does nothing to protect students who are currently injured using inaccessible restrooms, forced to leave restroom doors open, or suffering both physical and mental health impacts due to a lack of accessible facilities. UT has the necessary funding to address these basic accessibility issues but refuses to prioritize them. We demand that they expedite this 10-year plan and make these changes now.

My name is Fabiola Amaya, and I am an undergraduate student at the University of Texas and the author of this petition.

During my time at UT, I’ve had to adjust my class schedule and extracurricular activities around the lack of accessible restrooms. Many times, I’ve had to rush home after class, skip activities, or cut social time short because the only restroom that accommodates my power wheelchair is at home. Now, as I enter my senior year, I have no choice but to take back-to-back classes, which means spending four continuous hours on campus—something I’ve never done before. During the first week of school, I tried using a restroom between classes, knowing it wouldn’t be comfortable, but I didn’t expect it to result in an injury due to the restroom’s inaccessibility.

I reached out to the disability departments on campus, explaining my situation. While they offered a temporary fix, their response lacked urgency and empathy. I was even told that one of the major disability departments didn’t need to be looped in on my emails, as they would be contacted only if their help was required.

How can it be deemed unnecessary to involve a disability department when one of your students is injured using a restroom? Why is it considered an inconvenience for you to be copied on an email while your students don’t have access to accessible restrooms?

We need change now. It's disheartening, frustrating, and infuriating that I’ve had to invest emotional and physical energy into creating this petition. In 2024, no one should have to plead for access to accessible restrooms.

On the Moov is a student initiative that stands to revolutionize campus accessibility through the power of community. Through On the Moov, disabled students are partnered with teams or volunteers to assist them with navigating the inaccessible parts of life on campus. Our team leaders (disabled students) have a shift sign up sheet respective to their schedule and are released weekly on Discord. YOU can make a difference and sign up for available shifts that fit their schedule. A typical shift is approximately 30 minutes long, and may consist of walking between buildings or sharing a meal. Make a friend, and scan the interest form if you’d like to become an Individual Volunteer for On the Moov! 💜💜
