PCI Webinar: Making Storytime More Accessible to Children with Disabilities
According to the CDC, 1 in 20 children have a diagnosed disability. What’s more, stigma and fear may be barriers for families with children with disabilities who may not feel welcome at the library and may not think Storytime is right for them.
In this presentation, learn how storytime can act as a bridge and connector for families with children with disabilities, providing information, resources, and community.
Attendees will gather strategies for planning and implementation to make your storytime more welcoming and inclusive to children with disabilities.
