"A disability is one part
of a whole person. Every person has something to give, is of
equal value and worth, and deserves equal access and
opportunities."

A 3 panel cartoon. In the first is a teacher in front of a chalk board showing "Mrs. Reich 3rd Grade Class", above it is a "Celebrate Diversity" banner. The teacher is saying, "Kids with disabilities belong with their own kind. Not in my class.". The 2nd panel shows the teacher walking out of school and a car skiding toward her. Glasses are on the ground, skid marks and the words "screech" and "Bam". In the 3rd panel she sits in a wheelchair and is saying "I can still teach. I deserve to be in my class, this is where I belong. I should not be discriminated against."
"And then what?" T-shirts Wear these t-shirts to help some people's thinking along! Exclusion based on disability is discrimination.
"And then what?..." apparel Great for wearing to meetings and just about anywhere to help get point accross discrimination.
