We are so excited about this episode. Up first, you'll hear a conversation between Alli Strong-Martin and Carli Friedman, Director of Research at CQL (Council on Quality and Leadership). Carli talks about ableism; What it is? Why it's dangerous? And how to address changing it.
During the conversation, Carli discusses an assessment that she encourages everyone to take, including, and especially, people who work in the disability space.
So, in the second half of the episode, Andre Floyd and Tricia DePalatis did just that. They took the assessment and share their results. They discuss not feeling defensive, but using the tool as a means to encourage one another to be better.
