Language & Approach: Respectable Approaches to Including People with Disabilities
December 10 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Including people of all backgrounds and abilities is important for creating inclusive and caring communities. Canadians with disabilities often face barriers
to inclusion within society, including employment, financial security and social inclusion. Discrimination isn’t always intended, but it can come from a
place of not knowing how to reach out to people experiencing disability or come from a place of anxiety about saying or doing something that will be
offensive.
This webinar is about working towards making our communities inclusive and accessible, starting with the language around disability and then the next
steps, creating the ask. Some of your greatest resources in your community may remain untapped because they weren’t asked.
