March For Access!

The March For Access is an annual event that brings together people with disabilities and advocates to use their collective voice to share the need for accessible community inclusion. The focus this year is on accessible voting and there will organizations on hand to provide information on how to register to vote, how to request voting accommodations, and what to do if problems with polling places arise. Other community inclusion issues, such as housing, transportation, and employment, will also be advocated for.

This free event begins at 10am with sign making for the march. At 10:30, there will be a rally with several speakers talking about the need for accessible voting. We will then march north on W. 25th St. to  Franklin Blvd., cross the street, and return to Market Square Park. The Cleveland Community Sign Choir will then perform, tentatively followed by other musicians with disabilities. There will be community resource tables, as well as crafts and activities for kids, until 2pm.
