Tune into 抖阴福利导航鈥檚 鈥淟et鈥檚 Talk!鈥 podcast and hear first-hand stories and attitudes around disabilities
Story by Ellen Payne.
抖阴福利导航 is set to launch the second season of its popular “Let’s Talk!鈥 podcast, focusing on disability-related discussions. This groundbreaking podcast collective project was created by the 抖阴福利导航 Disability Cultural Alliance.
鈥淭he aim of the podcast is to bring essential conversations about disability experiences to the forefront,鈥 said Carrie Cantrell, Active Transportation Ambassador/Assistive Technology Trainer.
Tune into the podcast on and 抖阴福利导航.edu.
Approved by the Accessible Education & Disability Resources department, the podcast supports 抖阴福利导航’s strategic objective of fostering inclusion, belonging and equity while raising cultural awareness about the experiences of disabled students within the campus community.
“We want anyone who listens to Let鈥檚 Talk! to believe that creating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive learning and social environment for learners of all abilities benefits everyone,” Cantrell said.
The college鈥檚 students, faculty, and staff who want to encourage inclusive behaviors and attitudes toward students with disabilities are encouraged to tune in. By sharing the stories and perspectives of disabled individuals, the podcast educates and informs faculty and staff to better design and implement learning experiences tailored to students’ needs.
This initiative helps advocate for Universal Design, encouraging teachers to aid students throughout their accommodations process.
Don鈥檛 forget to recognize on Dec. 3 as we come together to support these initiatives!
