If you want to learn more about how to communicate with clear, concise, accessible language, this free webinar is a valuable tool.

The session also features a conversation between ACT Director of Strategic Engagement, Sam Melden, and freelance journalist Chris Higgins, whose documentary, Access, shows viewers how many important resources (like smartphones) are regularly used to navigate a life with disabilities.

Date: May 21, 10 am on Thursday
