About the Presentation –
It’s Not You; It’s Me: Reinventing Disability Services
Systemic exclusion in our communities has resulted in minimal experience living and working alongside people with disabilities equitably. Because of this, social service professionals need to make intentional efforts to reexamine our own perceptions, and the systems we operate within, to ensure we include people with disabilities in all parts of service planning and delivery. Additionally, we must become comfortable challenging our own beliefs, narratives, and ethics every step of the way.
