March is Women’s History Month, and we are celebrating the women who have shaped disability advocacy and expanded access and opportunity for people of all abilities.
Leaders like Judy Heumann, often called the “mother of the disability rights movement,” helped lead the fight for the Americans with Disabilities Act and greater civil rights for people with disabilities. Stella Young, an Australian activist and writer, challenged the way society views disability and encouraged deeper conversations about inclusion and representation.
Their work helped pave the way for programs and communities that prioritize access, dignity, and belonging.
At Halleck Creek Ranch, we see that spirit every day in the women who lead, teach, volunteer, and advocate for our riders. Their dedication helps create a place where people of all abilities can build confidence, connection, and independence through the partnership with horses.
This month we celebrate the women who continue to move the disability rights movement forward and help create a more inclusive world for all. 🐴
