Communicating with People with Disabilities

Script authored by: Kids Included Together

Single Byte · 6 minutes

Many of us have been in a conversation where we wanted to be respectful and were not quite sure how to handle it, and that hesitation can create distance without anyone intending it. This Byte covers a few practical habits that make everyday interactions clearer and more welcoming for people with disabilities, and it closes with an interactive scenario at a fast food counter where you make the calls yourself and see how each one plays out.

By the end of this Byte, you will have four practical tips for communicating more clearly and respectfully with people with disabilities.
