Nancy E Hansen, PhD, Professor, Director, Interdisciplinary Master's Program,Disability Studies Accessibility is not an optics issue or a choice it is a necessity If you say I have special needs ... then just say the word disabled. Euphemisms only fuel ableism. Disability is not a dirty word. Haben Girma True Inclusion moves at the speed of trust.

If we’re lucky enough to grow old, we are going to experience disability.” The pair provided five good ideas on how to apply inclusion and accessibility principles: 1. Assume anyone coming into your workplace has a disability. 2. Inclusion is about more than being nice. 3. Recognize language has impact. 4. Embrace intersectionality. 5. Make accessibility a core budget line.
