Open Style Lab Live Better Longer

This week on FOX Rehabilitation’s Live Better Longer podcast we are joined by Yasmin Keats, Executive Director of Open Style Lab, a non-profit organization that is on a mission to make style accessible for everyone, regardless of cognitive and physical abilities. Celebrating its 10th Anniversary, Open Style Lab started as a public service project following the tragic events of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing and has since grown into a successful non-profit whose core fundamentals center around research, education, and informing the public about inclusive design and how it empowers people living with disabilities, bringing them joy, identity, and self-expression. Yasmin takes us through her journey of living with a disability and how it eventually led her to work with Open Style Lab. Yasmin also discusses Open Style Lab’s summer workshop which sees an interdisciplinary team of clinicians, engineers, designers, and people with disabilities working on functional fashion that is supportive and stylish for all.
