In this episode of One Sized Does Not Fit All (https://www.onesizedoesnotfitall.org) the Podcast of the Concerned Advocates of New England (https://www.concernedadvocatesofnewengland.org) I speak with James Norris Founder and Executive Director of Handicapable Fitness (www.handicapablefitness.com) and Author of "Feeling Left Out" (https://a.co/d/8FK1MJO⁠) the first in a four part series of children's books.



James Norris was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy (CP) at two years old after an operation during which his oxygen supply was cut off for over five minutes. In this, episode we discuss what happened and James' experience growing up with CP. We also discuss how COVID 19 has effected the disability community; effects such as more isolation, and related mental health issues. James and I also discuss the need for better acceptance in the community and workplace for individuals with disabilities.
