Ableism: Why The Language We Use Matters

Fifteen percent of the world’s population, or about one billion people,

and other issues. During this presentation on ableism and the language we
use to discuss disability, participants will learn what ableism is, how it is
perpetuated in everyday language, and how to fight back against the subtle
ableism we see every day.
