Communication Rights
Communication Rights
Disability Voices United affirms that access to individualized communication services and supports is a fundamental right, and that accessible communication is an essential component of living a self-determined life.
As we navigate a changing climate and face increased denials of services by the Regional Centers, DVU has centered protecting communication access as an organizational priority and is actively working on a multilevel defense.
Here you will find tools to learn more about the current state of communication access as well as the principles being cited in service denials. Here you can join our advocacy network and get information about upcoming events, and join us as part of the coalition of advocates prepared to fight for communication rights.
