is to politically empower the 1.9 million Michigan citizens with disabilities.
The Disability Caucus provides a voice for people with disabilities by encouraging them to run for public office and supporting candidates who further the cause of access and other disability issues. The goals of the Caucus are:
- Encouraging people with disabilities to run for both party and public office;
- Supporting candidates who endorse disability and access issues;
- Increasing the involvement of individuals with disabilities in the political process; and
- Promoting issues related to disability.

As nearly 20% of the population, people with disabilities comprise the largest minority population in Michigan. The political potential of the disability community is immeasurable, especially in an era of razor-thin election margins. The Disability Caucus mobilizes this power.
The statewide Disability Caucus brings people with disabilities into the political process creating direct influence over policies that affect the quality of their lives. The Disability Caucus directs a political action committee to endorse candidates responsible for decisions that impact the lives of people with disabilities and the services available to them.
