The Self Determination Group (SDG) is well represented at the Texas Advocates Annual Conference in San Marcos! With this year’s fun pirate theme, SDG members got creative and designed their very own pirate flag. ⚓️☠️

They’re having a great time connecting with fellow advocates, learning new things, sharing ideas, and listening to inspiring speakers—all while making their voices heard and building friendships along the way!

We’re proud of SDG for representing The Arc of DFW Area and demonstrating the power of self-advocacy, leadership, and community! 💜🧡

ICYMI: The Self Determination Group first page of the July Newsletter reminds us of the important role disabled activists played in advancing the disability rights movement.

Disability rights didn’t just happen. They happened because disabled people stood up, spoke out and refused to give up.

Thank you to everyone who came out to support our demonstration about the recent threats to Olmstead and the ADA. The right to live in our communities is at risk- which means our right to choice, self determination, and autonomy are too!
