Co-Creating Pregnancy Plans with Disabled People: The APAP Model [CC] [ASL]

This webinar introduced a collaborative birth planning tool for pregnant disabled people: The Accessible Pregnancy Action Plan (APAP). Developed by Dr. Kara Ayers, the APAP is a framework for a peer-facilitated discussion about the preferences and accommodations a pregnant disabled person needs during labor, delivery, and postpartum. Participants learned about the birth outcomes, pregnancy, and postpartum experiences of disabled people, which inform the APAP. They also learned about the impact of stigma and discrimination on disabled birthing people. -------- Visit our website: https://heller.brandeis.edu/lurie Follow us on social media: https://linktr.ee/lurieinstitute Participate in Our Research: https://zurl.co/tyUF Visit the National Research Center for Parents with Disabilities website: https://zurl.co/U2aQ Visit the National Center for Disability and Pregnancy Research website: https://zurl.co/Tb0O Visit the Community Living Policy Center website: https://zurl.co/qdbj Visit the Community Living Equity Center website: https://zurl.co/3KAD #LurieInstitute #disability #DisabilityAwareness #DisabilityAdvocacy #DisabilityResearch #DisabilityPolicy #DisabilityPregnancy #DisabledPregnancy #PregnancyResearch #Brandeis #BrandeisUniversity #HellerSchool @HellerSchool @brandeis
