Select the "View On-Demand Recording" button to begin.  |  44 minutes Our language is powerful and can reveal hidden assumptions we might not realize we have. Our words can be hurtful even when well-intended. This webinar is designed to allow participants to explore new ideas, ask questions and challenge some assumptions about what it means to live with a disability. Ableism shows up in our organizations whether we intend it to or not; this webinar invites professionals to learn new ways of thinking and talking about disability.
