OwlLight and Ableism

What is Ableism?

Definition: Discrimination in favor of able-bodied individuals.

Examples of Ableism:

  • Lack of wheelchair-accessible entrances
  • Not providing an ASL interpreter at conferences
  • Believing people with disabilities are less valuable
  • Labeling disabled individuals as “inspiring” for completing everyday tasks
  • Touching someone’s assistive devices without permission

How to change?

  • Acknowledge the person; don’t ignore them.
  • Respect their autonomy and understand that they may not need your help.
  • Always ask if assistance is needed before offering it.
  • Take the initiative to educate yourself about their needs.
  • Avoid making assumptions.
  • Provide accommodations as necessary.

What Do We Do?

Our approach is learner-centered, prioritizing the development of skills that foster independence and success in today’s society. Rather than working to eliminate stimming behaviors, we encourage communication through any functional means—whether it’s AAC, ASL, verbal, or otherwise. We believe in meeting each learner where they are and teaching by following their lead, ensuring that their unique needs and strengths are respected and supported.
