ACCESSIBILITY
Our space is wheelchair accessible with no stairs, and we prioritize an accessible floor plan. We have plenty of parking available in our lot.
In THE ANTI-ABLEIST MANIFESTO, Tiffany Yu presents frameworks for conversations, breaks down the language of ableism, and proposes real actions that lead to genuine and authentic allyship. Yu includes contributions from disability advocates, activists, authors, entrepreneurs, scholars, educators, and executives to highlight the importance of an intersectional view of disability and celebrates the power of stories and lived experiences to center the vast range of disabled identities that have far too often been “othered” and rendered invisible.
Organized from the personal to the professional, the domestic to the political, Me to We to Us, THE ANTI-ABLEIST MANIFESTO offers the tools to become an active anti-ableist including:
Ways to support disabled people within our communities
Identifying and preventing microaggressions, and removing ableist language from our vocabulary
How to increase accessibility in public and professional spaces
How to create truly inclusive events
