“But You LOOK So Good” is a phrase shared with people living daily with illness, pain and disability. But what does it mean and imply? It often brings a sense of misunderstanding and disregard and even prejudice. Join an insightful, experienced panel of experts in disability support as they help us learn about the positive impact of validation, belief and acceptance in the workplace and beyond. Our panelists will provide insight and practical advice in the areas of mental health, veterans support, neurodiversity, caregiving and invisible disabilities.
