The Crip Chronicle is a disabled-led, rights-rooted publication focused on making disability more understandable as a public issue rather than a private problem.
Disability is often discussed in fragmented ways: as diagnosis without context, policy without lived reality, or personal experience without connection to rights or systems. When these pieces are separated, disability becomes harder—not easier—to understand, and responsibility is pushed onto individuals rather than shared by institutions and communities.
This publication exists to bring those pieces back together.
We document disability-related issues through three connected lenses: rights, policy, and lived experience. Our goal is not to speak for all disabled people, but to make patterns visible—where access breaks down, where policies fall short of their intent, and where disabled people are excluded from decisions that shape their lives.
The Crip Chronicle is a companion project to DisabilityWiki, a community-built resource centering disabled people's expertise on navigating systems, rights, and daily life.
The Crip Chronicle is not a support group, a legal clinic, or a crisis service. We do not provide medical or legal advice. What we offer instead is documentation, context, and connection to existing resources, with care for both contributors and readers.
Disability does not need to be simplified. It does need to be taken seriously.
