Friend,
From interactions in public to portrayals in fiction, it's
common for non-disabled people to view someone with a disability as a
victim - or even someone to fear. But as creative writer Mids
Meinberg points out in an Easterseals blog about disability
representation, "Disability isn't scary, ableism
is."
That's because ableism - discrimination against people
with disabilities - is a big problem. That's why
it's so important to recognize unconscious bias when it shows up
in our society, in others, and even ourselves.
Will you put yourself to the test by taking our ableism quiz now?

Though we've made great strides in improving overall perceptions
of disability, the stigma from ableism continues to be one of the
biggest obstacles in the way of making our world more equitable and
inclusive.
We launched our new Ableism Quiz to help you recognize and take action
against bias when you see it - and discover if you have any of
these sentiments yourself. Are you ready to challenge your own biases
now? Take our quiz today!
