Over the years, we've seen quite a bit of resistance when partnering with public and private spaces to create meaningful work when it comes to accessibility.
Access to accessible restrooms, ramps, or even requests for large print on documents have often been denied or viewed as " special treatment " and not forms of responsible accommodation.
Most recently while partnering with a major Denver - based organization, we requested ASL interpreters for an event, only to receive push back and questions around the actual need for the service.
In our disappointment, we resolved to channel the frustration that we, and so many people normalize daily into a force for good.
