December 3rd is International Day of Persons with Disabilities, a day meant to promote our rights, humanity, and futures.

But recognition without action means very little. (1/6)
Grace, a young white woman, is pictured standing in front of trees using a blue forearm crutch. Above her is the text “December 3rd is International Day of People With Disabilities.” She is wearing a jeweled tone plaid midi dress with an oversized jean jacket and burgundy boots. Her brown wavy/curly hair is down and she is looking away from the camera. A close up photo of Grace in the same outfit and location with the text “Disability shouldn’t have to be inspirational to be respected, understood to be accommodated, or have a dedicated awareness day to matter.” above her. She is smiling towards the camera. A full body photo of Grace in the same outfit and location with her body turned to the side and one foot kicked up behind her. She is smiling and looking off in the distance.

They’re calling it the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act.”

But for disabled people, low-income families, and those who rely on care, it’s dangerous. Millions could lose Medicaid, Medicare, and SNAP.

Contact your Senators. We won’t stay quiet, we DISrupt. 🐊

We may be two months in, but we’re already making noise. 📢

DISrupt showed up, spoke out, and brought the movement to the Florida Voices for Health Summit. One post just didn’t cut it.

Thank you again to @healthyfla.bsky.social for making us space. DISruptors don’t just talk, we #FightLikeHealth. 💙

Big thanks to @healthyfla.bsky.social for having us at this year’s summit!

Two days of real talk, action, and community. Disabled voices are too often left out of these spaces, but not this time.

DISruptors don’t just show up, we shift the room. That’s how we #FightLikeHealth. ✨
The image is a start of a collage carousel post that shows three smiling young women seated behind a table, at a conference. They are wearing blue shirts with the "Disrupt Florida" logo and have name badges. On the table, there are flyers and a sign for "Disrupt Florida" with inviting people to join their cohort. A basket filled with blue brochures and zines is visible on the left. The background has a dynamic, edgy design with black and blue distressing and includes bold text that reads "Disrupt Florida at the Florida Voices for Health Summit 2025."

Florida, We Need You. 🚨

Our AG is siding with Texas v. Kennedy, a lawsuit that threatens Section 504. If this attack succeeds, millions could lose essential protections in education, healthcare, employment, etc.

Sign the Petition:
www.change.org/FloridaDefendSection504 ✍️

Take action now!
A graphic with a black and blue brick border around the outer edges with bold white text on a blue background. The title reads "Florida: Drop Out Of The Texas V. Becerra Lawsuit”. Below there is an image of the online petition on change.org and the text “Sign the petition to protect disability rights now!” The DISrupt Florida logo is at the bottom center.

Florida’s disability rights are under attack, but we’re fighting back. ✨

DISrupt Florida is a statewide cohort of The DISrupt Coalition, uniting disabled individuals, allies, and advocates to defend Section 504 and other critical protections.

Find all the links in our bio. Join the DISruption. 💙
A graphic with bold white text on a black background. The headline reads "Who We Are, Why We Fight, How You Can Help, Disrupt Florida” emphasizing community engagement and activism. Blue-and-black images such as a megaphone, a sign with a symbol of someone in a wheelchair, and an image of a group of people at the bottom with a sign that reads “Be the change you want to see in the world.” A continuation of the graphic with bold white text on a black background with blue accent images and the title "Who Are We?". DISrupt Florida is a statewide cohort of The DISrupt Coalition, dedicated to protecting disability rights. The text explains that the group is made up of disabled individuals, allies, and advocates organizing to defend Section 504 and other critical protections under attack. Key points highlight their mission to amplify disabled voices, provide a platform for advocacy and action, and build a strong, united movement for disability rights. A continuation of the graphic with bold white text on a black background with blue accent images and the title "Why Do We Exist?" The text explains that DISrupt Florida was created to take action through grassroots organizing, policy advocacy, and direct action because disability rights are under attack. It states that Florida is one of 17 states suing to eliminate Section 504, a law that has protected disabled people from discrimination for over 50 years. If the lawsuit succeeds, millions of disabled Floridians could lose access to education, workplace protections, healthcare, and public services. A continuation of the graphic with bold white text on a black background with blue accent images and the title "How You Can Get Involved?" The text provides four action steps: Join the Movement by signing up for DISrupt Florida updates, Sign the Petition demanding Florida withdraw from the lawsuit, Call the Florida Attorney General to voice opposition, and Spread the Word by sharing the post and inviting others to join the fight. The graphic ends with a bold statement: "We refuse to let that happen. This is our community. This is our fight.”

Hi Bluesky! My name is Grace and welcome to my little positive space on the internet! I am a college student in my early twenties who loves creating art, thrifting, and advocating for issues surrounding disability justice.
A young white woman named Grace is photographed outdoors from an upward angle as she has her hand on her head. She is wearing a green jacket and has a smile on her face with her eyes closed. The scene includes a blue sky in the background.
