Scenario

When teams overlook disability expertise among colleagues

I'm disabled and my startup team talks about accessibility like it's just a compliance checklist, but they've never asked what barriers I face working here, and I'm tired of being the invisible expert in the room.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen
