Description
Are you apprehensive about engaging with people living with mobility challenges or disabilities? Do you worry about accidentally saying or doing something wrong? If yes, then this session is for you! This is not an ADA-compliance session, but rather one that will dispel myths, offer tools that you and your team can use to view the Four Points from a perspective of the uniquely-abled, sensitively engage with people, and concretely identify ways to build a sense of PLACE for everyone. This workshop will provide resources and workshop time to plan three ways your organization can take the accessibility plunge immediately!
