During the 2023 Legislative Session, we want to remind policymakers that we need to support the adult to support the child. That's why we collaborated with The Children's Movement of Florida on a social media campaign focused on the parents, caregivers, and other supportive adults who help babies thrive.
When children are in nurturing, supportive relationships, they are ready to learn and grow. Healthy relationships are the foundation for kindergarten readiness and lifelong success.
Parents, educators, and medical professionals all play an important role to create safe, stable, and protective environments where babies can thrive.
Let your legislators know you care about this issue and want them to tackle family support, and health care access for children this session. Find yours here.
Please share our messages with your followers to spread the word about the importance of health care access for all Florida children. Share, like, or retweet our posts to help these important messages reach more Floridians!

We encourage you to sit back, relax and listen! In this episode of the Heart of Supervision podcast, Mimi Choy-Brown (host) talks with Dr. Alyssa Meuwissen from the Reflective Practice Center at the Center for Early Education and Development at the UMN about the basics of what reflective supervision is and how it could be an important tool for the child welfare workforce.
In 1977 Judy led the “sit-in” protest about the long-delayed regulations to implement Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the first federal civil rights protection for people with disabilities. For almost a month, nearly 200 people with disabilities occupied the regional headquarters in San Francisco of the federal agency responsible for issuing regulations that would guide the implementation of Section 504. The sit-in was one of the longest occupations of a federal building in United States history. It inspired grassroots protests by people with disabilities and their allies from a broad spectrum of backgrounds across the country. This sit in directly led to the issuance of regulations embodying the concepts of inclusion of people with disabilities and protection from discrimination. Judy’s central role in the disability rights movement and in establishing 504 principles laid the groundwork for the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Judy also assumed a major role in developing legislation that led to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD).
Judy was the first director of the DC Department on Disability Services in the District of Columbia. Judy not only fought for inclusion and against discrimination in this country. She also brought together the disability community nationally and internationally by giving hope to all who fight for equity and inclusion.
Judy fought tirelessly for the self-determination of all people, and the right to direct one’s own life. She advocated for people with disabilities to be fully included and welcomed in all aspects of community life. Judy challenged people without disabilities to recognize and value the gifts that people who experience disabilities bring to their communities.
Today at FAIMH, we honor Judy and all that she brought to center the voices and needs of our disabled young children and their caregivers.
Learn more about Judy by watching the documentary, Crip Camp, reading her memoir, Being Heumann, listening to her podcast, The Heumann Perspective, or visiting her website.
