Speaker, Poet, Advocate RussL.co & National Board of The Arc of the United States
Session Description: Dissecting the polarities of life as they relate to individuals with disabilities, Russell utilizes his introspection and insight to empower attendees to realize that it is not success or struggle, not fear or courage, not disability or ability, but rather all of the above. When we embrace the fluidity of life’s ups and downs, we discover the path to what is possible, whereby the potential of all individuals is unleashed.
Learning Objectives:
Outline their path to what is possible by focusing on their passions, rather than on success in and of itself. When we follow our passions, success will follow us.
Describe the differences between "help" and "support" in order to empower those in the disability community by providing them with individualized services.
Broaden their perspective on what the human condition may encompass and the fluidity behind it. One individual's most tedious task is another individual's greatest accomplishment.
