Persons with visible, sensory, and hidden disabilities face unique problems in accessing our legal system. Legal practitioners have obligations to accommodate clients, employees, and others with all types of disabilities, and must now understand the environmental, architectural, logistical, societal, and cultural barriers that define and impact the rights of disabled individuals in order to properly represent their clients.
The program will cover the following topics:- Developing cross-disability sensitivity and awareness, including people's first language
- Identifying best practices in customer service through the use of disability etiquette and effective communication skills
- Identifying some common characteristics of difficult people who may have a mental health condition and practical tips on how to have positive interactions
- Identifying and responding to requests for accommodations
