About

Disability Rights New Mexico is the state's designated protection and advocacy organization, working to protect, promote, and expand the rights of New Mexicans with disabilities. Within the coalition, that perspective keeps students with disabilities, one of the groups the Martinez/Yazzie ruling names directly, at the center of the push for a sufficient education.
