The world needs a little more awareness of the beautiful work that is being done both locally and globally. I am going to start posting more resources as I recommend them to others.

I want to start off with Pineapple Support. This is an organization that has a long waitlist globally, but they continue to prioritize the care and needs of their community in an affirming way. They are putting in countless hours trying to build free and discounted support groups and webinars, that are accessible for those waiting to get into individual therapy. Please learn more about how you can support or refer to them as a resource.

TLDR: Surveys are asking for volunteers' feedback on disability access.

I am working on further continuing education, CE, trainings within the disability series now that my training on Americans' with Disability Act, ADA, and employment is complete (link in comments).
