Sadness over the Passing of Fiona Morrissey, Disability Rights Advocate
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Fiona Morrissey, a brilliant academic and dedicated fighter for disability rights and mental health reform. Fiona was a regular contributor to the early disability rights campaign, @DADACampaign.
Fiona’s contributions to the field were invaluable, and she leaves behind a lasting legacy that we must uphold. Her commitment to advocating for the rights and well-being of individuals with disabilities and mental health challenges was unwavering.
We extend our gratitude to Fiona for her tireless efforts and the impact she made in improving the lives of many. Her passion and dedication will be deeply missed.
Our thoughts and condolences go out to Fiona’s family, friends, and colleagues during this difficult time. May she rest peacefully.
