The first-ever virtual Roll on Capitol Hill is almost here, and the United Spinal advocacy and policy team is excited to work with you to elevate the voices of the SCI/D community and advocate for policies that empower all. Although we will miss seeing everyone's smiling faces in person this year, the stakes are at an all-time high with a new Administration in office! Learn more about what we're advocating for.


Barnhard's tireless advocacy, from creating a nonprofit to participating in several Roll on Capitol Hill legislative advocacy events, has earned her the honor of being the recipient of this year’s Finn Bullers Advocate of the Year Award. Check out Natalie's story.


This year United Spinal is celebrating #75YearsUnited in building an inclusive world for individuals with SCI/D. To commemorate this huge milestone, we are offering our members a chance to win exclusive prizes throughout the year! Prizes donated by Amazon, BraunAbility, Cure Medical, EasyHold, Google, Microsoft, and many more added regularly! Check out a list of prizes and enter to win here.


United Spinal will be working side-by-side with accessiBe and other leading disability organizations to launch accessFind, the world’s first search engine that will display only accessible websites. Thanks to accessFind, millions of people with disabilities can soon find accessible websites with confidence and without struggle.
