Description: Language is powerful, shaping how we think, feel, and act. In this free virtual training from Disability Belongs™, learn how to build language habits that center accuracy, dignity, and respect. We will discuss why disability is not a bad word, tropes to avoid, the differences between person-first and identity-first language, and more. There will be time for Q&A at the end of the training.

If you are unable to attend live, don’t worry! All registrants will receive a link to view a recording of the session within a few days of the webinar.
