Disability impacts all of us. 1 in 4 adults in the US have some type of disability and 1 in 36 children in the US is diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder (source CDC).
According the Census 2022 American Community Survey, 30,373 (7.1%) Loudoun County residents have at least one type of disability.
People with disabilities live in poverty 2x the rate of those without a disability. Disability can increase the risk of poverty, through lack of employment and educational opportunities, lower wages, and increased cost of living.
With a growing population in Loudoun County, the need for services and programs to reach low-income families and people with disabilities is only going to increase.
Is there a cost to attend?
No, there is no cost to attend. The breakfast is complimentary. The event is a fundraiser, however, and guests will be asked at the end of the event if they are inspired to make a contribution.
There is no minimum or maximum gift required.
