Join us for our next Legal Community of Practice Webinar on August 20th at 12pm as we explore the important connection between communication access, meaningful legal representation, and autonomy for people with disabilities.

Our guest speakers from PRC-Saltillo and Sangha Unity Network - SUN will help us consider a critical principle: communication barriers are not an accurate indication of capacity. Together we will discuss practical strategies attorneys can use to make initial interactions more accessible, recognize and address communication barriers, and connect clients with resources and professionals who can support effective communication.
