Profile
Jeff
Moyer
The Troubadour of Inclusion
"Jeff Moyer's show raises consciousness …" Billboard
Magazine
Jeff
Moyer is a National Public Radio Morning Edition commentator and
has
been featured on the CBS Evening News and 20/20, in National Geographic,
and in a BBC documentary on the U.S. disability rights movement.
Moyer
is a true renaissance man - songwriter, author, passionate public speaker,
publisher, and champion of the dignity of all people. His unique
blend
of humor, music, and powerful ideas has been heard by audiences in
46 states, in Australia, throughout Canada, and in the Virgin Islands.
Moyer's published books of classroom activities and his new musical
How Big Is Your Circle? Are at work in schools and communities world
wide, promoting acceptance of difference, genuine community, and overcoming
exclusion, ridicule, and violence. Jeff's six albums of recorded
original music span many styles, themes, and
forms, but share the common attribute of lifting high the dignity of
the human spirit and showcasing the thought, depth, and heart of
this
talented and versatile musician. Jeff's entertaining, moving, and uplifting
keynotes make him a popular and sought-after conference presenter
for
diverse audiences at both national and international meetings.
"Jeff
Moyer is an important and unique musician, not just for the Disability
Rights Movement, but for all of us. His music, his message, and
his mission make us all whole." John McCutcheon, 1998
Grammy Award Winner - Best Children's CD
Music From The Heart and Partners For CommunityLiving
are proud to announce the release of Lest We Forget, an audio documentary
on state institutions, segregation and the continuing movement toward
community integration of people with cognitive disabilities. Lest
We Forget, produced by Jeff Moyer, (Judy Leasure, Executive Producer),
is a two-CD set drawn from 35 hours of oral histories with individuals
who had lived within Ohio's state institutions, their families, staff
who worked and still work within their walls and the advocates and
program pioneers who have established community-based services for
individuals with cognitive disabilities.
“This is one of the most important oral histories
of the disability movement ever produced."
Mark D. Sherry, Ph.D.
Ability Center of Greater Toledo, Endowed Chair in Disability Studies
University of Toledo (Ohio)

"I
write to add my own thanks for your wonderful participation in our
Start On Success Program in April 2004. Your messages
touched the hearts of all of us and underscored once again our
unifying theme that 'It's ability, not disability, that counts.'
Of course,
you play that out yourself every day in all you do, but for all
the kids with disabilities, their parents and teachers, our National
Organization
on Disability Board and staff members, and disability community
friends, you communicated it in an especially meaningful way. . .
. . Hip, Hip,
Hooray for Jeff Moyer."
Alan A. Reich, President, National Organization
on Disability,
Washington, D. C.
"The
knowledge, experience, awareness, sensitivity and sheer talent that
you brought to our conference/celebration transformed
what owuld have been an OK effort into something truly memorable.
You raised the occasion to an different level--for interns and parents,
conferees, NOD directors and benefactors. By your focus and enthusiasm,
you provided a spiritual dimension that touched every member
of your
audience. Bravo ! With admiration, appreciation and affection,
we salute the newest member of the NOD/SOS pantheon of 'stars'."
Charles Dey, Director, Start On Success Program, National Organization on
Disability
"Jeff
Moyer's personal appearances top the list of inspiration and entertainment
in the disability movement. His musical talent is superb. He sings to
you, he talks to you, he fills your eyes with tears - but most of all
he makes you glad you have experienced him." Carl Augusto, President,
American Foundation for the Blind
Assembly
Presenter/Artist in Residence
Jeff’s
assemblies are perfectly matched to the age of the audience. Engaging
original music and short, powerful ideas teach tolerance, self-regard,
and the wholeness of all people. Jeff’s work in schools often
initiates the use of his classroom activity guide, We’re People
First, or school musical, How Big Is Your Circle?
Assemblies also can be used in conjunction with longer residency activities
or preparation for community-inclusive evening concerts. Residencies
are designed
to meet the needs of schools and districts. Workshops with selected
students, rehearsals with inclusive choirs, community concerts, and
the writing of school mottoes, pledges, and songs are among the activities
Jeff offers.
"The
two days Jeff spent in our schools proved to be two of the most rewarding
ever for our children... his message is truly on target and exactly
right for these trying times in the public schools." Worth Hatley,
Superintendent, Randolph County Board of Education, Asheboro, NC
Concert Performer
"Jeff
Moyer's music has chronicled and celebrated the progress of the Disability
Rights Movement for the past 25 years. He has touched, challenged and
inspired audiences of all ages across the country with his message of
the wholeness of all people with disabilities. Jeff truly is 'The Troubadour
of Inclusion'." Judy Heumann, Washington, DC
