A Complete Guide to Advocating for Accessibility at Work

Workplaces are changing. Remote options, hybrid schedules, and new technology have made jobs more flexible than ever before. But for people with disabilities, barriers remain.

Disability Benefits in 2025: 3 Fast Facts You Need to Know

Disability benefits aren’t just about money—they’re about survival, independence, and dignity. As governments adjust policies in 2025, here are three quick facts everyone should know:

1. Policy Changes Have Real-Life Consequences

Disability Benefits in 2025: Why Policy Changes Matter for Our Future

 For millions of disabled people, disability benefits are more than financial support—they are the foundation of independence, dignity, and equal opportunity. Yet across North America, shifts in government disability programs are sparking anxiety, debate, and activism.

Technology has long been described as a great equalizer. From the invention of the telephone to the rise of the internet, every major leap forward has promised to bring people closer together and level the playing field. For people with disabilities, this promise has always held special weight.

In theory, technology should erase barriers. A screen reader can give blind users access to books. Speech-to-text can help people with limited mobility type without touching a keyboard. Video calls with captions allow Deaf and hard-of-hearing people to connect across the world.

And yet, in 2025, the story of assistive technology (AT) is complicated. The tools exist. The innovation is real. But cost, accessibility, and design flaws often keep them out of reach. The result is a paradox: a world brimming with possibilities, but still unevenly distributed.
