AT Banter Podcast Episode 404 - Invisible Disabilities Association

This week Rob and Ryan discuss the challenges and misconceptions surrounding invisible disabilities with Jess Stainbrook, Executive Director of the Invisible Disabilities Association. They explore the organization's efforts to raise awareness and advocate for people with invisible disabilities, including legislative initiatives to implement disability ID symbols on government IDs and training for law enforcement. Jess shares his personal experiences with dyslexia while emphasizing the need for societal understanding and acceptance. The conversation highlights the importance of education, representation, and community support for individuals with invisible disabilities. It’s a long overdue conversation around invisible disabilities that you won’t want to miss, especially if you are a fan of 70s era sitcoms!
