Hopefully another way to get the message across, and to stress the importance of advocacy for people with disabilities. We should not focus on the prefix "dis" but rather on one's abilities. A disability does not mean that a person cannot do something, it only means they may need modifications in order to do the job well. I like to think of disability as a modification that in turn shows off my abilities.
Interests (9):
acceptance, accessibility, advocacy, disability awareness, disability counselling, disability issues, disability rights, equality, inclusion.
