As educators, our classrooms are filled with many different types of learners. Step into the shoes of individuals living with disabilities in our interactive workshop titled "Walking in Their Shoes: A Disability Simulation Workshop." Through a series of hands-on activities and simulations, participants will experience firsthand the challenges faced by people with disabilities, gaining valuable insight into various types of disabilities including physical, sensory, cognitive, and invisible disabilities. Guided by expert facilitators, attendees will explore resources and learn practical strategies for creating more inclusive environments in both personal and professional settings. Join us for a transformative journey towards greater empathy, understanding, and accessibility for all.
