TASH is an international leader in disability advocacy. Founded in 1975, TASH advocates for human rights and inclusion for people with significant disabilities and support needs – those most vulnerable to segregation, abuse, neglect and institutionalization. TASH works to advance inclusive communities through advocacy, research, professional development, policy, and information and resources for parents, families and self-advocates. The inclusive practices TASH validates through research have been shown to improve outcomes for all people. As a member driven association, TASH relies on a network of passionate advocates and professionals to ensure the needs of our community are addressed, and rights are upheld. We invite you to become a TASH member and contribute to our vibrant organization through the TASH chapter network, numerous volunteer committees and online and in-person training and events.
