Our training delves into the history and philosophy of the Independent Living Movement and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). We draw comparisons between the history of the Civil Rights Movement and the Disability Movement and how both movements changed the way services must be delivered today in a culturally competent, person centered model. Throughout the training, we cover the importance of intersectionality and language in culturally competent organizations.
Our trainers are persons with disabilities and/or many years of training and consulting experience in the disability community.
CEU's are available for nurses and social workers.
