Community Support for Disability Inclusive Curriculum

Disability Inclusive Curriculum Belongs in Every Classroom!

Help schools reflect all of us - including disabled people.

Why It Matters

Most students never learn about disability as a part of human diversity, culture, and history. That leaves out more than 1 in 5 people—and sends the wrong message. Disability Inclusive Curriculum helps all students thrive.

What You Can Do

  • Talk to your schools about including disability from a social model lens regularly, across all subjects, not just on awareness days/months.

  • Talk with teachers, principals, and school board members and at school board meetings about why all inclusion efforts must have curriculum that is disability inclusive and why it matters.

  • Share your own experiences or concerns about what you or your students learned by default by not having a curriculum that is disability inclusive and ignores the social model of disability.

  • Ask: “What are students currently learning about disability, who has shaped what is being taught and who’s missing from that picture?”

  • Share our website with our free resources with teachers and administrators.

  • Encourage schools to hire us for professional development, mentorship, sign up for membership and more.

What We Offer

  • Disability Equality in Education is the disabled led pioneer of the concept.  Many others focus on disability history, which is essential and is a part of our work, but we go beyond history and awareness.

  • Free lesson plans & resources for grades K–12

  • Professional Development in formats and on topics that work for whatever a school needs.

  • Educator Membership that includes weekly live help, a digital classroom for ongoing support and ideas and more
