Advocate for Change! The Power of Disability Inclusion
This week I’m talking to Becky Kekula, who serves as the Disability Equality Index (DEI) Director at Disability:IN. She is also an International Motivational Speaker and a Social Media Marketing Consultant. Disability:IN is the leading nonprofit resource for business disability inclusion worldwide. Becky is very passionate about carving a space in conversations about diversity and inclusion for people with disabilities, which stems from her personal experiences with dwarfism. She shares insights about the work that is being done in this space, and how to effectively practice allyship with the disabled community. One such insight is that the disabled community must be a part of the initial framework of diversity and inclusion initiatives, and not an afterthought.
