Disability History and Awareness Resource Guide
The educator, historian and author William Loren Katz once said: “If you believe people have no history worth mentioning, it’s easy to believe they have no humanity worth defending.”
Missouri HB 555 gives voice to the history and contributions of people with disabilities by designating October as Disability History and Awareness Month. During the month, schools will have the opportunity to promote understanding and awareness of disability history and culture.
A curriculum guide for schools entitled Disability History and Awareness: A Resource Guide for Missouri is now available on the DESE website. This collaborative endeavor, which includes contributions by the staff of Missouri Assistive Technology, contains promotional ideas, activities and resources designed to expand student knowledge, understanding and awareness of individuals with disabilities and disability rights history.
The guide is now available on the DESE website at: http://dese.mo.gov/se/documents/se-admin-mo-dis-hist-aware-resguide.pdf
