Our purpose is as follows:

1. Support workers who may identify themselves as a person who experiences disabilities to navigate their challenges and thrive.
2. Raise awareness both in the union and the workplace that people with disabilities are capable of doing the work needed. They just have to do things differently than most would do it.
3. Educate others about the reality of the disability experience and hopefully reduce stigma while providing information and resources.
4. Advocate around disability issues, including for older workers who acquire limitations as they age.
