ThinkDIFFERENTLY
ThinkDIFFERENTLY initiative seeks to transform Ulster County into a more supportive and inclusive place for individuals of all abilities by changing the way individuals, businesses, and communities relate to those with special needs.
“ThinkDIFFERENTLY” is a call to action and a genuine challenge to look past our differences and treat others the way we would hope to be treated.
- Individuals can focus on the abilities of each person rather than being concerned about their disability.
- Businesses can change the way they welcome customers who may be differently abled and/or have sensory issues into their establishment.
- Communities can consider the needs of residents of all abilities when making planning decisions, all with the goal of providing a more supportive environment.
The ThinkDIFFERENTLY Initiative calls on the Ulster County government to share proactive steps by individuals, businesses, and communities to embrace and support residents of all abilities.
