We’re so excited to share more about our vision and work with you 😊
A green slide with a yellow box with the text: Inspired by our Disabled ancestors and the ongoing work of disability justice activists, Crip Care envisions an empowered disability community thriving in crip culture and gathering in radically accessible, crip-centered spaces. We dream of expansive care webs rooted in mutual aid, interdependence, and collective liberation. A green slide with a yellow box with the text: Crip Care is committed to dismantling non-disabled supremacy and other intersecting systems of oppression by fostering spaces where disabled people can lead, organize, and create, and disabled people most impacted by oppression are centered. A green slide with a prickly pear cactus and a yellow box with the text: We aim to cultivate a world where disability is celebrated as a source of strength and creativity, where access is not an afterthought but a cornerstone, and where care is collective and transformative. A green slide with a yellow box with the text: Through education, advocacy, capacity building, and the cultivation of crip culture and crip joy, we strive to build a future where Disabled people not only survive but thrive in communities that honor their inherent worth, dignity, and the value of their diverse experiences. We’re so excited to share more about our work with you!
