Manage episode 374508862 series 3494106
Welcome to episode 6! Today's episode is very important to us as it discusses the Restroom Access Act law and your rights. This law, while in other states, was just enacted this year, 2023, in the state of California. Mason and I played a role in creating the bill, AB1632, and getting it to pass into a law. We detail step by step how we accomplished this so you can learn how to do it too. It does take time but it is worth it! We hope this episode will help you if you are an adult or child suffering from Crohn's disease or any chronic illness, know somebody who is, or are just interested in learning more about aspects of chronic illness. We are family friendly and want kids to be involved! Listen together, separately, but ultimately we hope we bring some attention to some well deserved topics on chronic illness.
