SPEAKERS: Jean L. Minkel, PT, ATP

WEBINAR ABSTRACT: This talk will use Bryan Stevenson’s four guiding principles to move toward justice, as a framework to work toward mobility equity.  We will examine our clinical practices, public policies, research agendas and technology offerings to uncover systemic inequities toward persons with mobility disabilities.  Hopefully, you too, will become not just a caring professional; but a motivated ally.
