Increasing awareness about people who have invisible disabilities

00:00:05.500, 00:00:11.208
[TEXT: Judy Heumann, Special Advisor for International
Disability Rights, United States Department of State]
means that people who have invisible disabilities must really try

00:00:11.208, 00:00:14.917
not to be embarrassed by those disabilities.

00:00:14.917, 00:00:19.208
It's very difficult in many societies,
including in the United States,

00:00:19.208, 00:00:24.167
when people may be ridiculed for having disabilities,

00:00:24.167, 00:00:30.958
and invisible disabilities are things that you
can hide, but typically only to a small degree.

00:00:30.958, 00:00:36.333
So it's surrounding yourselves, again,
with other disability rights leaders

00:00:36.333, 00:00:41.500
who can support you and what you're trying to do is very important.

00:00:41.500, 00:00:45.083
And also working on the development and implementation

00:00:45.083, 00:00:51.500
of legislation like the United States' Americans
with Disabilities Act is very important.

00:00:51.500, 00:00:54.000
And through the development of such legislation,

00:00:54.000, 00:00:58.833
working collaboratively in coalitions across disability,

00:00:58.833, 00:01:05.167
we all gain support and strength, and
ultimately improve our societies.
