According to CDC data, 1 in 4 American adults lives with a disability. However, many of our systems that are set up — from health care to education to wages and more — fall far short of meeting their needs. On this episode of The Broad Cast, Access Living President and CEO Karen Tamley joins co-hosts Becky Carroll and Eileen Dordek for a conversation about creating an equitable world for those living with disabilities, and how the disability community continues to become more inclusive of those with neurodiverse conditions. Plus, Becky shares her own experiences taking care of her mother who had a disability and raising her daughter who has a rare disease and is on the autism spectrum.
