Praise for the Disability Is Human Official Workbook
“I am so glad I found your workbook. I lead a small team of designers who are passionate to champion for digital accessibility in product design department. My team have never had any experience facilitating or crafting an online workshop, but they are very eager to learn. I gifted a physical copy of your workbook to each of them and to my surprise they immediately put it into practice! They successfully ran 6 workshops, the “it made me think” closing activity gave us the data to show the value of our workshops to upper leadership. Thank you!”
“I recommend the companion workbook and believe anyone who wishes to take notes or reflect while reading will enjoy the section called ‘Reflection Exercises’. Anyone planning a workshop, meeting, or discussion will appreciate the sections called ‘You and Your Team’ and ‘An Accessibility Workshop-Building Template’. These follow the same steps I use to create inclusive and accessible meetings. Even if you aren’t planning a formal workshop, there are guiding principles that would be applicable to team meetings, K12 and Higher Ed classes, and community events. The final section, ‘Group Activities’, has a wealth of ideas on how to open up the conversation about disability.” | Full book review
Bonus Activity
Disability Watercolor Conversations
This is an activity Stephanie does in workshops and classes to break the ice, get to know each other (and ourselves) a little better, and just relax with some watercolor prompts. Even better: No artistic skills or tech connections necessary! Encourage people to put down their phones, pick up a paintbrush, and get engaged and enlightened.
