Inclusive Health and Wellness for the Disablity Community

What problem would you like to solve?

The lack of medical professionals with disabilities training in the health and wellness.

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

Many people with disabilities are discouraged from addressing their health or wellness due to the lack of understanding disability, treatment, received, or accessible facilities.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Training and education to medical and wellness professionals on different types of disabilities. Also on how to speak to someone with a disability rather than being so cold, dismissive and morbid.

Who would that help?

The disability and elderly community

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?
