Get Ready for National Disability Voter Registration Week: July 15 –19!

Did you know that the voter turnout rate for people with disabilities is 6 percent lower than that of people without disabilities? Each year, the REV UP campaign, through the American Association for People with Disabilities, organizes National Disability Voter Registration Week (NDVRW) to promote registration and civic engagement among people with disabilities.  July 15-19, 2019 is National Disability Voter Registration week. Chapters of The Arc across the country are promoting voter registration throughout the week.
