September is National Preparedness Month, an observance each year to raise awareness about the importance of preparing for disasters and emergencies that could happen at any time. The 2021 theme is “Prepare to Protect. Preparing for disasters is protecting everyone you love.”
We have been working to educate people in Muskegon about the importance of being emergency prepared by hosting a monthly webinar called Ready to React: A Disaster Preparedness Training.
Our next session will be on Wednesday, September 29 at noon via Zoom. Please join us to learn about ways you and your loved-ones can prepare for emergencies.

We were so thrilled to see everyone who came out to and participated in our 4th Annual Spring Into Action Self-Advocacy Conference. Participants attended both in-person and virtually via Zoom offering a hybrid conference experience. Attendees learned about many self-advocacy topics including emergency preparedness and the importance of accessible communities. Thank you to everyone who helped make this event possible!
We were thrilled to have the Transition Campus at Craig (MAISD) Participants join us virtually via zoom at our Spring Into Action Self-Advocacy Conference last week!
This week is National Disability Voter Registration Week.
Every year, the REV UP Campaign coordinates National Disability Voter Registration Week (NDVRW) to increase the political power of people with disabilities by sharing resources and getting folks registered to vote.
In the last election, an estimated 38 million people with disabilities were eligible to vote, and we invite national, state, and local organizations to participate in NDVRW in order to continue to raise the disability voice and civic participation across the country in 2021 and beyond! #VotingRights #disabilities
