Welcome to Accessible Housing Matters!
On today’s episode, I welcome Steve Brown to the show. Steve is a historian, professor at the Center of Disability Studies, and the author of numerous books and articles about disability rights.
Steve will share what disability culture is and how it relates to accessible housing in general. At the end of the day, the issue of providing accessible housing in our communities is clearly related to the way society manages its relationship with people with disabilities in general.
