Session Abstract

According to SHA's Climate Survey, 11 percent of surveyed respondents currently had a physical, learning, or mental disability that substantially limits one or more of their membership activities. How do we remove barriers in academia; cultural resource management; hiring, recruitment, and retention; fieldwork; and training to foster a more inclusive, welcoming environment for persons with disabilities. Using "calling out and calling in", an interactive inclusion and equity tool, participants will work together to interrupt disability and ableism in our respective organizations and institutions.

We’ll talk about the comparative benefits and drawbacks of these various paths, as well as their current prospects.
