Since its beginning, TASH has been much more than a professional association. TASH exists to help people with severe disabilities and their families live the best possible lives. TASH has always held a principled stand on social justice for people with disabilities, and has been unwavering in its social justice values. As Lou Brown, one of the TASH founders once said, “…if we do our jobs, people with severe disabilities will live productive, safe, healthy, happy and integrated lives.” You can make a difference in the lives of people with disabilities– those most vulnerable to segregation, abuse, neglect and institutionalization – by supporting TASH.
There are many ways you can give the gift of TASH this holiday season. You are invited to join in the 2013 Holiday Giving Campaign, to make a difference in the lives of people with disabilities. To make a contribution today, visit https://tash.org/giveagift.
Give a gift OF TASH
Introduce TASH to someone you love and give an annual membership. Share your passion for the unyielding work that TASH does by giving a one-year TASH membership to your friends and family. For just $30, you can give a basic gift membership and you will receive a gift certificate to give them to activate their membership – for $75 you add online access to the latest research with TASH’s peer reviewed journal, Research and Practice in Severe Disability, and for $150, premium membership with RPSD online and in print.
Give a gift TO TASH
Your gift of $75 or more to TASH demonstrates your commitment to support a crucial cause – equity, opportunity and inclusion for people with disabilities. With a gift from you, TASH can:
Continue the focused leadership to end restraint and seclusion in schools (visit https://stophurtingkids.com).
Continue to challenge reliance on segregated settings and provide meaningful choices and opportunities for people with disabilities in the communities in which they live, through advocacy, publishing and training.
Actively promote the full inclusion and participation of persons with disabilities in all aspects of life. No one should be forced to live, work or learn in a segregated setting, and your gift will help preserve the human rights of individuals with disabilities.
Give a gift to TASH and friends
TASH depends on the ongoing support of its membership to continue advocating for the rights of people with disabilities. You can make a significant impact by making a gift – as little as $10 a month – to TASH and sharing TASH with your friends today.
