Please join us for the webinar series, Nothing Without Us: Exploring Disability Justice, Access, and Art in Public Health, led by our colleagues at the Nothing Without Us Collective.
This three-part webinar series invites preventionists, advocates, and public health professionals to reimagine violence prevention through the lens of Disability Justice. Each session builds on the last, guiding participants from critical reflection to practical application:
September 10, 2025
- Session 1: Disability Justice and the Public Health Approach to Violence Prevention introduces Disability Justice as a framework that challenges the limitations of traditional public health models. Participants will explore how ableism operates in prevention and begin reimagining strategies grounded in interdependence, collective access, and leadership of the most impacted.
September 17, 2025
- Session 2: Complicating Accessibility in the Anti-violence Movement deepens the conversation by examining how accessibility is often reduced to compliance. Participants will learn about the ADA from an expert and understand its strengths and limitations. Through a power analysis and critical engagement with legal frameworks, participants will learn to move beyond “check-the-box” inclusion toward transformative practices that redistribute resources and shift organizational culture.
September 24, 2025
- Session 3: Art as a Catalyst: Centering Disability Justice in Primary Prevention highlights art as both practice and pathway for prevention. Participants will engage with ideas that demonstrate how art can disrupt ableism, amplify marginalized voices, and serve as an accessible tool for evaluation and collective meaning-making.
