The more we talk about something, the more comfortable we get talking about it.
This is true for so many things in our lives, but especially true when it comes to disability.
When we talk about disability, it's not just us that become more comfortable. It's those around us.
Talking about disability normalizes disability. It reduces the stigma around disability. It reminds those around us that disabilities exist, and that they're more common than they might think.
Talking about disability spreads education and builds empathy. The more people know about disabilities, the more people understand about disabilities — and the more likely they are to consider disability as they build and advance the world around us.
The future is only as inclusive as we make it.
So, let's get talking.
