In this presentation, Ben-Moshe will discuss key findings and themes from the book, focusing on the questions: what does an intersectional mad\/disability framework brings to our understanding of decarceration and abolition? How did the concept of abolition play out in different arenas of incarceration\u2014in anti-psychiatry, the field of intellectual disabilities and the fight against the prison industrial complex? What if we understand these forces in tandem as opposed to causal effects, i.e. deinstitutionalization caused the rise of incarceration and the rise of \u2018the mentally ill\u2019 in prisons and jails? This session will be recorded.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n For accessible copies of Dr. Ben-Moshe’s slides please contact Dr. Ben-Moshe.

This workshop will review the process used to produce audio description for the national television broadcast of the feature film The Color of Paradise<\/em>. Participants will experience how audio description works and is added to media. At the conclusion of the session, participants will have learned a history of audio description, importance of visual literacy, effective use of language to describe images, making meaning with voice, and possible futures of audio description. This session will be recorded.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Paper Panel<\/p>\n\n\n\n Inclusive Intervention: Can Individuals with and without Disabilities be a part of the Same Interventions?<\/strong> This presentation will discuss how successful interventions could include both people with and without disabilities to effectively promote health and wellness in communities, as well as the inclusion of people with disabilities in public health initiatives. Using the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) as a theoretical example of how an evidence-based intervention can be inclusive, the presenter will 1) demonstrate how the DPP curriculum could be modified to include individuals with disabilities using the principal from Universal Design for Learning and 2) illustrate how DPP could be delivered to communities inclusive of individuals with and without disabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIf not me, who?\u201d: Awareness, Stigma, and Advocacy Experiences Among Adults with Rare Diseases, Disorders, and Disabilities<\/strong> This presentation discusses awareness, stigma, and advocacy of people with rare diseases, disabilities, and disorders (RD). By presenting the findings from a two-part study involving participants with over 35 different RDs, this presentation will demonstrate how the complex nature of RD awareness and stigma \u2013 and related interventions \u2013 are interwoven with concerns regarding the influence of societal and structural barriers. This session will be recorded.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Perceived Health Care Discrimination for the deaf and Hard of Hearing Prior to and During the COVID-19 Pandemic<\/strong> This presentation discusses the relationship between severity of hearing loss and perceived health care discrimination prior to and during the time of COVID-19. The goal of the presenter\u2019s research is to help guide future mandates regarding personal protective equipment (PPE) use in health care settings and accommodations required to efficiently communicate with deaf and hard of hearing (d\/HH) patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Allies and Obstacles: Disability Activism and Parents of Children with Disabilities<\/strong> This webinar explores the successes of parent activism in supporting disability rights, as well as the points of fracture in which parents oppose and subvert them. Attendees will learn the history of the emergence of parent activism, the strategies employed by parent activists, and the key accomplishments of parent activism. The presenters also discuss the points of alliance between parents and disabled activists, as well as the key conflicts between parents and disabled activists. This session will be recorded.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n A Community-Based Initiative to Develop an Adaptive Training Module for Adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (ID\/D) to be Physical Activity Instructors<\/strong> This semi-structured discussion will be facilitated by members of a project team currently working towards developing a training module for people with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (ID\/D) to become fitness and physical activity instructors. The presenters invite attendees to discuss and help guide efforts in developing this training module for aspiring fitness instructors with ID\/D.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Partnerships toward Accessible Design: Cross-Departmental Collaboration on Accessible Web Design<\/strong> Accessible design for digital content is a high priority at any time but particularly so now. This session will detail a multi-year, coordinated effort to substantially improve the accessibility and usability of Portland State University\u2019s public-facing website. Attendees will learn methods for cross-campus collaboration, training development, and vendor management, as well as walk away with strategies and sample resources they can use in coordinating similar accessibility projects at their institutions. This session will be recorded.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nOpening Keynote<\/span> | May 4th 12 PM PDT<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
