CW: This post discusses violence against disabled people.

Every March 1, we honor and mourn disabled people who were murdered by their parent, family member/loved one, or caregiver. This act of murder and violence is called filicide.

In the last five years, at least 548 disabled people were killed by filicide. There are likely many more, as those are only the deaths we know of.

Our friends and partners at the Autistic Self-Advocacy Network have information on vigils across the country, as well as resources and stories that honor individuals lost to filicide. Go to autisticadvocacy.org/mourning/ to learn more.
