and to empower people with disabilities to achieve economic self-
sufficiency, independent living, and inclusion and integration into all 
aspects of society.

to NCD on disability issues.
    We currently have a membership reflecting our nation's diversity 
and representing a variety of disabling conditions from across the 
United States.
