Writing Pure and Simple: Plain Language Communication in the Field of Disability

Communicating in the field of disability has its own set of challenges.  How can we communicate clearly for our broad range of stakeholders, each with their own language, needs and level of understanding?  How can we hold true to legal or policy terms while keeping writing simple?  How can we keep communications brief without using jargon or acronyms?  These and other dilemmas are faced almost daily by those who communicate about disability issues.   During this webinar, we will use both presentation and conversation to show key points about plain language writing in the disability field.    

Audience:  Anyone who is connected to ADA Centers across all ten regions (Affiliates and Partners welcome!)

Presenters:  Sara VanLooy and Hannah Rudstam, Northeast ADA Center at Cornell University
