Webinar Description:

Social media has a track record of spreading misinformation, yet it can also be one of the most democratic resources we have. The open-access format can reach many in the disability community and enable their voices to be heard, which mainstream media cannot do. The webinar will take a practical approach, highlighting how social media can amplify the voices and knowledge of our community for broader dissemination and engagement.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Explain the many sides to social media
  2. Identify how social media can be used as a tool for information dissemination
  3. Apply social media to increase engagement and inclusion

This is a webinar by AUCD's National Training Directors Council (NTDC).
