Each year, the TASH Conference brings together a diverse community of stakeholders who gain information, learn about resources, and connect with others across the country to strengthen the disability field. This year’s conference theme, “Be Creative - Innovative Solutions for an Inclusive Life,” reminds us to think outside the box during times of uncertainty. Creativity, innovation, and determination can pave the way for meaningful and inclusive lives for people with disabilities.
In an ever changing time, the world is becoming a more diverse and pluralistic place. It stands to reason that the clients/coworkers with whom you work also reflect the changing dynamics. To address some of these issues, this session will look at concepts of cultural and linguistic competency and how they may help your agency better manage and operate in these shifting times.
