Embracing Difference
Persons of diverse backgrounds with disabilities often face multiple barriers, including access to services and supports and discrimination in community, education and employment settings.
Progress
TASH has promoted equity, opportunity and inclusion for more than 36 years.
Help us build a brighter future that supports the rights and needs of every individual.
Inclusion
Inclusive Education?
Nearly 44% of students in special education are receiving some or all of their instruction in a regular classroom.
What about the 2.5 million others who aren’t?
Opportunity
More than 65% of working-age adults with disabilities are unemployed.
Through customized and supported employment, we can create a workforce where all members are valued and make meaningful contributions.

New TASH Webinar on Restraint and Seclusion Launches April 4
Each day, children with disabilities are at risk of restraint, seclusion and other aversive interventions that cause significant physical and emotional trauma. And while we continue to work toward federal legislation that would restrict these practices, there is something you can do to make a difference in your schools and communities. Join us for a four-part webinar series April 4-May 4, 2012, and gain the tools, knowledge and resources needed to prevent and respond to restraint and seclusion, and become a powerful advocate for change!
