Direct Support Professionals work 24/7 to help people with intellectual and developmental disabilities live safe, independent, and meaningful lives. From mornings to overnight care, medication support to building life skills, DSPs are essential. Families cannot be expected to do this alone. Protect HCBS and support the workforce people depend on every day.

Disability voices matter, especially at the ballot box.

The American Association of People with Disabilities’ REV UP Campaign (Register, Educate, Vote, Use your Power) is building the power of the disability vote by increasing civic engagement and making elections more accessible for all.

Join the movement to ensure people with disabilities are heard, represented, and empowered in every election.
