Parent Perspectives and Programs with Susan Shaner-Cortes!

This podcast is all about disabilities! It is geared for an audience that may not know a great deal about disabilities, but might want to educate themselves to be better allies of the disabled community. With a variety of guests including parents, academics, educators, policymakers, and youth, we will discuss barriers for individuals with disabilities in Canada and globally and how we might be able to educate and mobilize our communities to break down these barriers. We also hope to share resources and information for our listeners who are caregivers of individuals with special needs.
