By taking the pledge for Spread the Word, you are stepping into the role
of a leader committed to shaping a more inclusive world. Your pledge
signifies a powerful stance against derogatory language targeted at
individuals with intellectual disabilities. Your commitment calls for
change, inspiring others to follow suit and join the collective effort
to eliminate discriminatory language. Together, we can create a society
where everyone is valued, celebrated, and free from the impact of
harmful stereotypes.
Although our annual awareness day is on the first Wednesday in March, "Spread the Word" is an every day campaign to promote respect, acceptance, and inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities.
Please get involved, take the pledge, plan an event, share your stories year round.
