Acceptance, Access and Inclusion of People with Disabilities
“The severity of one’s disability does not determine their level of potential. The greatest barriers that persons with disabilities have to overcome are not steps or curbs, it’s expectations.” -Karen Clay
Our speakers will explore:
- Who is in the population of People with Disabilities?
- What is that population facing in terms of Housing? Work? Education? Safety? Healthcare?
