Students with disabilities deserve support and protection in school. Special education is an education issue, not a healthcare issue, and students with disabilities deserve to have their rights protected by experts in education.

AUCD opposes moving special education and civil rights offices out of the Department of Education. These offices help make sure students with disabilities get the services, supports, and fair treatment they need to succeed. https://bit.ly/4oyuJEm

Happy World Bicycle Day!🚲🌍

Today, we’re celebrating the joy, freedom, and independence that riding a bike can bring. Bicycles are more than just a way to get around. They build confidence, encourage physical activity, and create opportunities for connection and inclusion.

It’s also Day 3 of our Las Vegas iCan Bike Camp! 🎉 We’re proud to support riders as they develop new skills, gain confidence, and work toward the goal of independent bike riding. Every pedal forward is a step toward greater independence.

Join us in celebrating all the riders, families, volunteers, and instructors who make this week so special. 💙🚴
