Episode 32: How Dare You Even Ask That

Kimberly interviews Donna Fox, executive Director of Forever YES. Donna teaches teens and young adults the importance of self-awareness, self determination, and self advocacy. They discuss how public opinion, especially in the areas of healthcare and media representation, is still getting it wrong when it comes to disability. Kimberly and Lisa talk about crappy situations and the best ways to answer questions about your disability. And do awareness months still have value? Thanks to Chris Ankin for use of his song, “Change.” The book "A Celebration of Family: Stories of Parents with Disabilities." is available from Amazon here.
