If you’re at NCORE this week, join me and my fellow members of the National Advisory Council on Accessibility in the Academy for our session on Friday at 10:00 AM HAT, "From Turtle Island to Palestine: Disability Justice as a Decolonizing Lens and Praxis."

Evidence shows that many disabled people (including lawyers) avoid disclosing their disability at work due to fears of negative repercussions, leading them to forgo requesting reasonable adjustments.
