We invite you to a Community Conversation to discuss disability pride! Disability Pride Month is celebrated every year in July to mark the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in July 1990. Let’s come together to discuss disability pride. What does it mean? How do we live and further disability pride in our lives and in our workplaces? How far have we come since the passage of ADA, and what further changes would improve accessibility for all?
This is a time for conversation – to share feelings, raise concerns, and talk together as a school community. To aid the conversation, space will be limited. (We know it's coming up soon, so if you miss it, don't fear! If there is a lot of interest in this topic, we can hold another session soon.)
About the format. With these smaller Community Conversations, our hope is to explore restorative dialogue and build community, creating a space where we are all teachers and learners. We will draw heavily on practices from intergroup dialogue and restorative justice.
