Lucia Rios & Stacey Trowbridge: Disability, Community, and Inclusion

By Alan Headbloom, Feel Like You Belong

 

Lucia Rios was born with spina bifida but also with a family who urged her to try to do anything she wanted to. That included trying roller-skating on crutches and attending university in an era when the U.S. was still working to become handicap-accessible. She joins colleague Stacey Trowbridge to talk about stigmas, accommodation, and common-sense tips around disability.
