At American Disability Rights,
we believe understanding drives empowerment.

Our work is dedicated to protecting the rights of Americans with disabilities
to live fully and participate in their communities.

This includes ensuring that legitimate service dogs and emotional support animals are properly protected and accommodated as part of an individual’s medically supported Ability Independence Plan, helping them achieve personal goals and manage daily activities.

Disability Rights at the Forefront

Never Judge a Disability by it's Visibility

THEY Don’t Define Us.

At American Disability Rights Inc., we champion the civil rights of people with disabilities—both visible and invisible—because every individual deserves respect, access, and opportunity.

We empower Americans with disabilities to live independently and participate fully in society, ensuring service dogs and emotional support animals are protected wherever they go—homes, workplaces, public spaces, travel, and government services.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2023 American Community Survey, over 44 million Americans live with a disability, representing roughly 13.5% of the population—about twice the number of students currently enrolled in college and graduate programs.

Your language choice matters. Terms like “handicapped” are outdated and their can be harmful. We use “people with disabilities” to affirm dignity and personhood in all communications.

A disability can take many forms—physical, sensory, mental, or cognitive—and may be temporary, permanent, or progressive. The impact varies for each person, but every individual deserves equal access, opportunity, and inclusion in society.
