Did you know that July is "Disability Pride Month"?

Although Disability Pride Month isn't a nationally-recognized event, parades are held in a number of cities, such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York City, and San Antonio.

Tiffany Yu, who has a paralyzed arm, says that, "this month is about people with disabilities like me falling in love with themselves."

Learn more about Tiffany, and the history of Disability Pride month, here.
