Why do disabled people have to make trade-offs on how they want to live in exchange for mere survival?

He has his BFA in Film from Wright State University, where he also studied politics and human rights. In 2014, he debuted his first film, the award-winning short, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">trip<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and is currently in preproduction on the feature length film, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inamorata<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, about a same-sex couple and their relationship in the 1960s. Dominick, who has multiple disabilities including Spinal Muscular Atrophy, has been outspoken on including multiple disabled people both in front of and behind the screen in his work. He is currently also a vocal advocate for the inclusion of disabled people in all forms of media. When not filming, he works as a Media &amp; Entertainment advocate for The Center for Disability Rights. He also founded the Twitter Chat, #FilmDis, which is held most Saturday nights, at 9 PM ET, and explores topics pertinent to disability and media. FilmDis has evolved into the recently formed nonprofit, a media monitoring nonprofit, which fights to promote accuracy, accessibility, accommodation, and authenticity when disability is featured in media. His work has taken him to New York Comic Con, where he has moderated and participated on multiple panels, to the White House, where he was a mentor to young and upcoming disabled media makers, and to numerous public speaking opportunities across the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Website:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dominickevans.com\/\">http:\/\/www.dominickevans.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Twitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dominickevans\">@dominickevans<\/a><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_233532\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-233532\" style=\"width: 250px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/disabilityvisibilityproject.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Andra%C3%A9aLaVant.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"233532\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/disabilityvisibilityproject.com\/2017\/11\/13\/ep-9-medicaid-and-community-living\/andraealavant\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/disabilityvisibilityproject.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Andra%C3%A9aLaVant.png?fit=250%2C318&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"250,318\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Andra\u00e9aLaVant\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Andra\u00e9a LaVant is a sought after strategist, trainer, and advocate on issues of specific relevance to youth and adults with disabilities and other underserved populations.
