The Mobile Changing Unit (MCU) is a vehicle for inclusion to be introduced and
launched in San Antonio. The 24-foot MCU, branded ChangingSA, is a
transformative solution to help individuals living with disabilities and families as
they attend events. The San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo is served as the inaugural event last year as the MCU was unveiled for the first time ever in a special one week event.

Now the disABILITYsa team will be back at the San Antonio Rodeo only this time the Mobile Changing Unit will be available to attendees EVERY DAY that the Rodeo will be taking place (Feb. 8th-25th!) This means we will be needing lots of volunteer support to ensure the safety and sanitation of the MCU.

It is the first unit of its kind in the U.S. to provide services for families in the
disability community. The San Antonio community has over 200,000 individuals
or 15 percent of the population of all ages and socio-economic backgrounds
living with disabilities and many are challenged with self-care needs and multiple
barriers to participating in community experiences due to the lack of fully
accessible facilities in most public events and outdoor venues.
