SPECIAL EPISODE of Accessing Life: The Evolution of Inclusion, Re...

"Talking about inclusion. In my mind, that embraces four principles: the first is simply being present, the second is participating, the third is belonging, the fourth is being valued."


This episode of "Accessing Life" asks us to take lessons from the past and use them to continue to evolve what inclusion means for everyone. Host BJ Stasio leads an important discussion with an All-Star panel recorded at the Willowbrook Consent Decree 50th Anniversary event on May 2 at the College of Staten Island.

Panelists include:

  • Clarence Sundram, Willowbrook Attorney
  • Beth Haroules, Lead Counsel in the Willowbrook Class Action Litigation
  • Henry Kennedy, Family Member
  • Chester Finn, Self-Advocate and "Accessing Life" Co-Host
  • Eric Geizer, CEO, The Arc New York
  • Jason Harr, Chair of the Staten Island Developmental Disabilities Council

"How are you going to make your community know who you are and what you want and how are you going to carry that message?" - Chester Finn, Episode 7, Accessing Life Podcast
