Understanding Ableism Webinar - Accommodations

Our May 2026 Understanding Ableism webinar focused on accommodations and the complicated role they play within schools, workplaces, healthcare systems and public life. While accommodations are often discussed as straightforward solutions for accessibility, the conversation highlighted how much broader and more layered the topic actually is. Accommodations are not only about policies or paperwork, but about relationships between individuals and systems, assumptions about disability and larger questions about who spaces are designed to support in the first place.  Our panelists were: Cecelia Black – ADA and Disability Equity Specialist with King County Elizabeth Miller – Writer, educator, movement artist and disability advocate Kimberly Meck – Executive Director, Disability Empowerment Center ...
