Persons with Disabilities Sensitivity Training Video

  • 1.  Persons with Disabilities Sensitivity Training Video

    Posted Oct 30, 2014 09:44 AM

    I wanted to pass along a link to a great YouTube video that is short, incorporates humor, and effective. It would be great for training. I have recommended it here at my library for all of the librarians, staff, and student workers.


    There are closed-captions, and a transcript for the video is in the works.
