SABE is a national board of regional representatives and members from every state in the US.
SABE's Mission: To ensure that people with disabilities are treated as equals and that they are given the same decisions, choices, rights, responsibilities, and chances to speak up to empower themselves; opportunities to make new friends, and to learn from their mistakes.
What SABE Believes:
- People with disabilities should be treated as equals.
- People should be given the same decisions, choices, rights, responsibilities, and chances to speak up and empower themselves.
