8 gen 1974 anni - Formation of People First
Descrizione:
The early disability rights movement did not include people with intellectual disabilities, so people with these kinds of disabilities began their own local organization. In 1974, a small group of people with intellectual disabilities who were living in a large group home in Oregon started to meet to talk about their experiences. Everyone agreed that they were very tired of being seen only as “people with disabilities.” Someone in the group shouted, ‘We are people first.” The group decided that People First would be the name of their organization and they were formed in Salem, Oregon.
