Cont. Ed: Disability Training Series - Session 2 - Ableism, Accessibility, Etiquette
Date/Time of Event: Thursday, April 17, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Presenter: Morgan Stieber (she/they), BS
Location: Journey Mental Health Center via ZOOM!
Cost for the Training: $40
Training Details:
This section of the series will explore ableism, accessibility, and disability etiquette, each of which carries a different and lasting impact that reiterates the message that the world is not built for disabled people. Ableism is built into society in such a way that it’s not always easily identifiable, especially when it’s covered in “good intentions”. We all have access needs, but despite this, accessibility is often an afterthought for nondisabled individuals and businesses or organizations. Disabled people were forced to the edges of society for so long, and this has impacted the ways others interact with us, many facing a loss of autonomy and respect. So, how do we start to call out, call in, and change our actions?
Learning Objectives:
- Describe different aspects of ableism
- Think critically about access, their own and others’ access needs, and the relevance of accessibility in all spaces
- Identify different dos and don’ts of interacting with disabled individuals and reflect on their own interactions
