Subject: Help NCD Kick Off Our Online “Family Faces of Disability” Photo Album

Help the National Council on Disability (NCD) bring our new report “Rocking the Cradle: Ensuring the Rights of Parents with Disabilities and their Children” to life by submitting a photograph of your family to our new “Family Faces of Disability” photo album to be shared on NCD's Facebook page. With the “Family Faces of Disability” photo album, we want your photos that capture your family’s day-to-day life as a way to personalize the issues faced by parents with disabilities in the United States.

All photographs submitted to NCD’s “Family Faces of Disability” photo album MUST include a visual description of the picture for accessibility reasons. NCD retains the right to  remove any photo or its accompanying description without warning, if either is deemed inappropriate. By submitting your photograph, you grant permission to the National Council on Disability to display these photographs on NCD’s website, Facebook, Twitter or future print publications.

NCD borrowed an image from the “Media dis&dat” blog to use an example. The photograph can be seen at:

SAMPLE DESCRIPTION: Image shows the Willet family, a family of three. They are in a living room. A woman is seated in a large rocking chair in the center of the photo, smiling, holding  an infant child against her chest. Both facing forward. A man stands to the right side of the chair with his leg behind it looking lovingly at the woman and child. 

Please send your photos and descriptions to: FamilyPhotoAlbum at ncd.gov
