For years we have heard the mantra “treat people with disabilities just like their non-disabled counterparts.” Is this an appropriate way to treat people with disabilities?
 
 This previously recorded webinar will challenge viewers to:

• Explore the impact of discounting versus accepting difference
• Explore expectations versus outcome
• Learn disability etiquette
• Learn practical solutions for reasonable accommodations
