November 14, 2025
By: Staff Writer

Disability Visibility: A Roundtable Conversation

Community. Dignity. Action.

No one is invisible or voiceless — but it’s up to us to make sure no one is left unseen or unheard. Join a public discussion on the lived experiences of people with disabilities and caretakers to explore what true inclusion, access, and dignity can look like in all of our communities.

Date: Saturday, December 6 at 3 p.m.

Location: First Congregational Church, 4310 Courthouse Rd, Midlothian, VA 23112

Register at Eventbrite.

The venue is wheelchair accessible.This is a rare opportunity for members of the disability community to share their stories about any disability issues they’re facing as well as discuss how state and federal legislators can help with concrete solutions.

N4C is proud to promote this special event featuring N4C writer Heather Massey and her daughter Sadie.

“I want a better society for my kids. I’m passionate about healthcare. I’m a physician, my wife is in public health and the way healthcare is going right now is very frightening and I just want a candidate who is willing to go against what is happening on the national level. The vaccination piece is definitely scary, I think it’s really important to stay up to date with those things, the pandemic changed so much about how people trust the healthcare system, and while there are a lot of ways the healthcare system needs to improve, leadership from the top down needs to be solid and it’s just not solid right now”.

“I’m mostly concerned about the SNAP funding. Because in my profession, I know some people through Virginia Cooperative Extension who were doing nutrition education for SNAP beneficiaries, all of those programs were cut as kind of a ripple effect from the (Big, Beautiful) bill, but they lost those programs, which is important to me – nutrition information. I’m concerned about out healthcare, I’m concerned about what’s happening with immigration right now and for me personally, I’m soon going on Medicare, and I’m concerned with what’s happening with that. Things are so divisive, you can’t even really talk about issues in a calm way”.

“I am passionate about gun safety regulation. I am passionate about enforcement of the anti-trust laws. Those are two big ones for me. And also intelligent AI regulation and data center/environmental regulations. I have concern about the kind of Wild West style lack of regulation of artificial intelligence. I think we need to take a systematic thoughtful approach so that we targeted AI rather than just an uncontrolled profit for a few big companies”.
