About this disability events


The Disability Pride Parade is back, and registration is now open! The 5th Annual Disability Pride Parade and Festival is scheduled for Sunday, October 8, 2023, beginning at 10 A.M.


This year, our Grand Marshal is Nancy Bargmann, Director of the California Department of Developmental Services! Nancy has been leading the Department of Developmental Services since 2016 when she was appointed by then Governor Jerry Brown. Since then, and particularly during this global pandemic, Nancy has fiercely led 21 regional centers and the thousands of service providers and the nearly 400,000 consumers, families, caregivers and supporters of our community. One of Nancy's largest undertakings was successfully transitioning California from sheltered workshops and into home and community-based programs. Nancy is a firm believer in our event's mission, and we look forward to having her and hearing more from her at our event.


This handicap events is open to the general public and the entire community is welcome to attend. Allies and supporters are encouraged to join us and celebrate with us. Help us spread the word by sharing this email, posting our flyer on social media and telling everyone you know!
