Disability Happenings – Pushing Limits – June 20, 2025
What happens when psychiatric hospitals use restraints and drugs in ways that violate the rights of disabled patients? What does it mean when unhoused disabled people are forced to navigate city services from tents on the sidewalk? And is the Bay Area transit system finally listening to disabled riders?
This Friday on Pushing Limits, Eddie Ytuarte and Talia Mariano take you on a fast-paced tour through some of the most pressing disability rights developments in California.
From providing an update on the damning report on College Hospital Cerritos—where Disability Rights California found dangerous conditions for psychiatric patients—to a firsthand look at the growing encampments of unhoused disabled people in Berkeley, they’ll break down what’s really happening on the ground. Plus, they’ll bring insights from a recent Metropolitan Transportation Commission disability conference, exploring how transportation policies are shifting—or stalling—for riders with disabilities.
Tune in to stay informed, stay connected, and hear voices from the front lines of the disability rights movement.
This program is hosted by Eddie Ytuarte and Talia Mariano.
