Disability as Diversity Programming Toolkit: Postsecondary

Description

Disability as Diversity Programming Toolkit: Postsecondary is a resource that examines portrayals of disability, disability and design, language of disability, ableism and non-disabled privilege, and access as a civil right. This toolkit can be used to train adults and possibly youth leaders to raise awareness about disability.
