The next NACDD Self Advocate Discussion series is happening right now!
LGBTQ Pride Month is next month so the topic will be LGBTQ and Disability intersectionality. Our guest speaker will be David Frye, a familiar face to anyone who’s been to a NACDD Discussion Series because David is a constant member.
David is a member of the SARTAC Advisory Board and says “I received the Vermont Pride Award for Individual Activism on May 4th, 2013. From creating the support group and setting up a chat line to endless hours of outreach, I am in the process
of connecting LGBTQA individuals with disabilities across Vermont. This innovative and tireless work has earned me several accolades including an invitation to speak at the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force’s activist conference, Creating Change. I speak
up for LGBTQA people with disabilities that can’t speak up for themselves. I stand up for equal rights for people with disabilities that are LGBTQA. I continue to see this needed work not just in Vermont, but around the world. My dedication is bringing much
needed attention to this marginalized group of people.”
If you have any questions about this event, please email me directly at
