In Our Own Words is a community gathering and intentional space for people who identify as disabled or are exploring their experience with disability.
We define disability and disability experience broadly to include any kind of body or mind that doesn’t fit into cultural norms about what a bodymind should be and do. And we welcome those in our community who think they may have a disability but aren’t sure. Whether you have an official diagnosis or not, this space is yours.
We ask that nondisabled folks respect that this is an intentional space for disabled people to build community with one another.
