Disability Awareness

Let's Do This

July is Disability Inclusion Month. Discussing disabilities with youth can be challenging, especially since many disabilities are not immediately visible. This month, take the opportunity to educate the young people in your life about the prevalence and diversity of disabilities. Did you know that 1 in 6 people have a disability? By understanding this, we can make conversations more inclusive. 

Stay Inspired

This month, let's ensure mentorship is accessible to all by highlighting resources, opportunities, and communities that intentionally support youth with disabilities. Visit MENTOR’s Celebrating Disability Inclusion webpage to learn more and explore comprehensive resources. Make it a shared experience by exploring these resources with your young person. Together, we can create a more inclusive and supportive environment for everyone.
