Third Wave Fund features Long COVID Justice for Disability Pride Month as a grantee partner of the Disability Frontlines Fund.
Third Wave Fund writes:
Five years after the COVID-19 pandemic began, we continue to look towards organizations like our grantee partner Long COVID Justice that hold the frontlines in confronting the Long COVID crisis as well as other infection-associated chronic conditions—all while centering racial, social, economic and disability justice. Their work is done by and for chronically ill and disabled people, and centers BIPOC and LGBT communities, which often face disproportionate rates of COVID-19, Long COVID, and disability, along with the multiple impacts of pandemics past, present, and future.
As we reflect on the past and look towards the future this Disability Pride Month, we amplify the call of LCJ to continue utilizing COVID-protection strategies in our justice movements, because “COVID isn’t over, and more pandemics are on their way.”
