News:

  • Since July 2007, the Alliance has had teams of individuals working together to plan the direction the organization should take in the next three years. Those ideas have been summarized in a draft strategic plan. Before we finalize this plan, we would like your feedback. Please read the plan and then share your thoughts with us in this brief survey. Our organization is here to serve you and we want your voice to be heard as we plan for our future!

  • The Alliance recently launched a wellness program for people with disabilities. Living Well with a Disability uses goal setting and problem solving as the framework for developing healthy lifestyles. Most of us practice healthy living when we have meaningful activities we want to do, so the Living Well programs begins with why we want to be well. Then, the focus moves on to developing tools and skills for healthy living. This is an eight-week course that will begin in March. Please email marybeth@disabilitypride.org, if you are interested in learning more.
  • Join the Alliance's Transition Club for teens and young adults with disabilities for fun summer activities! You can even join us to go watch a Mariners game this August (limited space availability)! This is a great opportunity to meet other teens with disabilities, learn skills, visit new places, and explore options for about life after high school. Also, ask about opportunities for involvement during school year 2008-2009. Please call 206-633-6623 for more information.
  • As a person with a disability, are you ready to sustain yourself in case of a disaster? The Alliance would like to assist you in this effort and is working to ensure people with disabilities are included in community-wide emergency preparedness planning. We have put together a series of planning tools for you to use and are available to provide assistance in working through them. Contact us for more information!
