Pillar 2: The Rules of the Game
Most systems were not built for the traumatized brain or the disabled body; they are often a second cage survivors must navigate. In these courses, we explore the intersection of disability rights and legal advocacy—from the core protections of the Americans with Disabilities Act to the practical obligations of institutional systems and the professionals they involve.
This content provides the legal vocabulary to challenge systemic barriers, offering a roadmap for survivors seeking accessibility and a strategic framework for professionals advocating within high-stakes environments. Remember, understanding the rules is the first step toward leveling the playing field.
Explore the legal and systemic foundations of accessibility—how institutional barriers impact the traumatized brain and disabled body, influence judicial proceedings, and shape the rights of survivors—equipping you with essential knowledge of ADA obligations and the strategic tools for advocacy and access to justice.
Explore the strategic and ethical foundations of advocacy—how power distributions shape systemic access, how the intersection of disability influences justice, and how to effectively leverage your voice within institutional frameworks—equipping you with the essential skills to dismantle barriers and drive meaningful social change.
