Disability Pride Month Community Spotlight - Joseph Wilk
July marks the start of Disability Pride Month, a time to celebrate, acknowledge, and appreciate the diverse experiences and contributions of the 1 billion people worldwide living with a disability. Importantly, we focus on the Social Model of disability, where the emphasis is on creating environments that are inclusive and adaptable, recognizing and embracing all forms of human diversity. 🌍
In alignment with #DisabilityPrideMonth, we’re excited to launch our ‘Community Spotlight’ series. Here, we’re shining a light on amazing individuals from all walks of life who contribute to our diverse community.
