After a life threatening crash left a family member disabled, Dr. Raeda Anderson—Research Scientist and the Lead Statistician for the Crawford Research Institute at the Shepherd Center—devoted her life work to seeking change for the disabled community. Too often, conversations about the disabled community are on “fixing” the disabled, which in turn, shifts focus and policy away from this communities primary need: accessibility. In this episode, Dr. Raeda Anderson demonstrates how the social factors of livability and affordability force the disabled to merely negotiate survival. In contrast, she asks what if society and policy makers normalized creating accessible spaces for the disabled to thrive inside and outside the home?
