At New Disabled South (501c3), we are building a coalition across the South that centers the needs and daily experiences of disabled people. Our mission is to improve the lives of disabled people and cultivate strong disability rights and disability justice frameworks in the South. We do this by organizing our communities around the most critical issues we face, tracking legislation and policy that directly affects disabled people and educating our communities on its impacts, advancing legislative priorities that center our wellbeing and liberation, leading research on key issues, and changing media and social narratives about disabled people. Through this work, we impact the allocation of resources in our states, increase our collective power, and make this country a better place for us to live. We do this all with the lives and experiences of disabled people at the center (nothing about us without us). Per our 2023-2025 Strategic Plan, we are centering 3 strategic priorities to advance our mission: Poverty & Care, Criminalization, and Democracy.
