The ABLE TO CHOOSE campaign is changing individual attitudes and actions, business practices, community and civic activities, and public policy to make all aspects of community life accessible, inclusive, and welcoming to people with disabilities. This public awareness campaign showcases the personal stories of Virginians with disabilities at work and play, their relationships with family and friends, community and civic involvement, volunteerism and advocacy, and all other aspects of daily living.

Please browse the ABLE TO CHOOSE web platform to learn about the barriers people with disabilities face and overcome, their abilities and achievements, and their positive impacts on communities. Additionally, we hope that you will use the deep pool of disability resources and research, and take action by signing our pledge. The Able to Choose website is designed to inspire the Commonwealth Virginia, along with the media and its community leaders, to learn more about disability issues and educate their audiences on the importance of ensuring availability of the community supports that will make us all "able to choose" how we live.
