Do you want to make your organization more inclusive for people with disabilities, but aren’t sure where to start? Check out our coaching circle!
CCDA is partnering with Radiate Social Impact to bring you the Disability Inclusion for CCD Practitioners Coaching Circle.
This coaching circle will meet once a month from June to October for an interactive learning session and peer coaching. You will leave with the knowledge and the practical steps to help make your organization more inclusive for people with disabilities.
What is a Coaching Circle?
We have found that transformation happens in the context of relationship. This is why coaching circles are so powerful. The Disability Inclusion Peer Coaching Circle will provide an opportunity to reflect and learn from one another, in addition to learning from Jena Kitchen of Radiate Social Impact.
