If you’re at NCORE this week, join me and my fellow members of the National Advisory Council on Accessibility in the Academy for our session on Friday at 10:00 AM HAT,?"From Turtle Island to Palestine: Disability Justice as a Decolonizing Lens and Praxis."

We’re proud to celebrate Disability History Month and reflect on how we can foster a more inclusive and accessible workplace. Our Co-Head of Responsible Business Dean Lloyd recently hosted Tori Towers, solicitor, and member of The Law Society’s Disabled Solicitors Network, to discuss inclusion in the legal profession. Tori shared invaluable insights on creating a profession where everyone can thrive, including discussing the importance of inclusive language and findings from the recent Legally Disabled report. Check out the conversation below. #DisabilityHistoryMonth #DiversityandInclusion #WFW

I am here to amplify voices and break the silence on issues that have affected our communities for too long. We must stop violence, especially against women and girls with disabilities, who face both physical harm and intimidation. Disability rights are human rights, and we need to ensure accessibility and inclusion for everyone. Domestic Violence requires community action and the efforts of an interagency taskforce.We must speak out, advocate, and support each other. Advocacy means taking concrete actions to create safe spaces and true inclusion. By working together, we can remove the barriers that silence survivours. We can build a future where every voice is heard, every life is valued, and no one lives in fear. Let’s commit to this change for ourselves and future generations. Speaking out is the key. #AmplifyingVoices #BreakTheSilence #DisabilityRight #InclusiveFriendsAssociation

NALA recognizes Disability Employment Awareness Month! Throughout October, we celebrate the contributions of individuals with disabilities in the workforce and reaffirm our commitment to fostering inclusivity and accessibility in the legal profession. As paralegals and legal practitioners, we understand the importance of creating an environment where all individuals, regardless of ability, can thrive and succeed. Let's use this month to raise awareness, challenge stereotypes, and advocate for equal opportunities for people of all abilities. #DisabilityAwareness #law #paralegals #paralegallife #legalpractitioners
