Understanding Ableism

Join us for a free webinar about long COVID.

Long COVID is a kind of COVID-19 infection where the symptoms last for more than two weeks, and many people with long COVID acquire disabilities. Disability rights advocates have warned government officials about the possibility of the COVID-19 pandemic being a mass-disabling event, and they were right. While most public spaces no longer have penalties for going maskless, any given person’s COVID-19 infection could devolve into long COVID. This webinar’s guest speakers understand the detriments long COVID can have on people’s health and will offer tips on how we can adjust our covid-cautiousness practices to protect people who live with long COVID.

Tuesday, May 20
10:30 a.m.-12 p.m.

Virtual via Zoom. RSVP here to receive the link.

Sign language interpretation and CART will be provided.
