SUMMARY:PtW: The Power of Disability Language
DESCRIPTION:This presentation is intended for families/guardians. \n\n\n\nLanguage is more than just a form of communication. It shapes the way we think and shows how we view others. The language we use can enforce stereotypes or create inclusion and equality. In this presentation\, we will talk about how you can use powerful disability language to model disability as human diversity and not something that is wrong\, broken\, or needs to be changed. \n\n\n\nThis event is presented by Miranda Grunwell of Disability Network Southwest Michigan on: \n\n\n\n\nAugust 20\, 2024 at 12:00 to 1:30 PM — Click here to register\n\n\n\n\nThe Power of Disability Language is part of our Paving the Way to Self Determination training series.
