The Civic Engagement Task Force focuses on people with disabilities and their families to actively shape state policies and programs. Meeting on the fourth Thursday of the month, the task force creates space for members to discuss issues of access, equity, and systemic barriers, viewing each participant’s lived experience as crucial to effective policy change. Members engage in activities like tracking bills, analyzing policy impacts, and writing to legislators to advocate for inclusive measures. Through these actions, the task force strengthens civic engagement, ensuring that community voices are represented and that policies uphold the rights, dignity, and autonomy of people with disabilities.

One4All Voting System
One4All Voting System is an accessible way for you to vote. The one4all system uses a tablet, keyboard, headset, and printer to allow people to cast their ballot securely, privately, and independently. Even though it is electronic, it is not an online system. Your votes are printed on a paper ballot where you can give to your town or city clerk along with everyone else’s.
