“If we don’t acknowledge the truth, we cannot reconcile the hurt – or prevent its repeat.”

Gather with us to mourn people with disabilities throughout history who lost their lives at the hands of caregivers to commemorate Disability Day of Mourning. We will meet at the Fairfield County Infirmary Cemetery on State Route 37.
