Sessions and slides from The Multicultural Disability Conference are now available—and free. The event, held in late March, brought together professionals who sought better understanding of how to serve people and families who are experiencing disability from all backgrounds.
The event is over, but conference organizers agree the work is not done. “There's an urgent need for continued conversation," said Mindy Dokos, the project’s media manager. "The big part of our conversation, as part of this project, is how to be humble and come together and talk.”
“It doesn't mean that we all agree,” said project director Eduardo Ortiz. “We can have disagreements and those disagreements are important to know. … If we know what we agree on, we can be more effective in different interventions that we can develop.”
