Navigating Disability Justice: Addressing Long Covid & Health Inequities

Virtual

This webinar will reflect on the intersections of disability justice, offer community navigational knowledge, and help us think of the ways in which we can build a more equitable future within the contexts of health decline and pandemics. Disability is something we will all navigate, either through natural health decline or possibly from being repeatedly infected by Covid-19; one infection can change our lives forever. Join us for a candid discussion amongst fellow disabled comrades, long covid survivors, disability justice advocates and covid safety organizers/specialists.
