So very proud of the incredible efforts of student leaders Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine and @UMichmedicine chairing the 3rd national @DAC_med conference today! You can still tune in for so many thought-providing seminars on disability advocacy in healthcare. tinyurl.com/cyt3eh98


Just wrapped up a valuable panel and collaboration between @DAC_med and The DocsWithDisabilities Initiative about navigating disability in education and patient care!! Content from this discussion will be available in an upcoming The DocsWithDisabilities Initiative podcast. Next up, research and abstract hour!


Thank you to Diana Cejas, MD, MPH for a wonderful talk shedding light on the barriers to and differences in care experienced by adolescents and youth with disabilities. We came away with some useful tools on how to promote an anti-ableist, neurodiversity affirming practice.



Thank you to our panelists @DrEJStigler and Kenneth Jennings and our moderator Cris Mix from Shirley Ryan AbilityLab for a great discussion of how disability intersects with multiple identities in and outside of healthcare.
