2026 Citizenship Highlights
We’re sharing stories of engaged citizenship that were featured in this year’s annual report.
Skills Society’s 2026 Annual Report
We’re excited to share our 2026 annual report! This year’s theme, We Build the Path by Travelling It, reflects a time of transition at Skills Society and across the broader systems shaping the lives of people with disabilities. It speaks to the reality that the path toward inclusion, belonging, and citizenship is not always clear or already laid out. More often, it is built through relationships, learning, persistence, and a willingness to keep moving even when the way forward is uncertain.

Skills Society’s 2025 Annual Report
We’re excited to share our 2025 annual report! This year’s theme invites us to reflect on the enduring nature of the disability rights and community living movements. It reminds us that these are not isolated moments in history, but living, evolving journeys rooted in decades of advocacy, resilience, and collective action. It is both a call to remember and a call to action. Reminding us to honor and protect the progress that has been made by self-advocates, families, and community allies, and to ensure we do not slip backwards. Community living - rich with inclusion and deep belonging - is not a destination but a continuous movement toward equity, dignity, and full participation for all. Our roots run deep, and our commitment to never settling and always striving for a ‘good life’ for each person we serve, remains strong.
