Come meet, connect, ask questions, and help build the movement.

Since the first Disability Pride NYC Parade in 2015, the Committee has hosted an annual outreach meeting, welcoming New York City’s disability community to its union headquarters to connect, share a meal, and build solidarity around disability justice and rights.

We are also grateful to the NYC Mayor’s Office for People with Disabilities for serving as the City agency permittee and partner for the 2026 Disability Pride Block Party in Union Square Park.

Join us on September 9 and help us build toward Disability Pride 2026!
