REA-L Conversations: Holding the Line on Inclusion 🎙️ 

What gets in the way of hope? What makes it so hard to stay on the path of inclusion? REA-L Conversations is a frank, unfiltered, and sometimes cheeky podcast where families and allies dive into the tough, messy, and deeply personal realities of ensuring people with intellectual disabilities live fully included lives. 

From navigating funding pressures to challenging low expectations and ableism, we speak openly about what it takes to stay committed to a vision of belonging, even when the world keeps pushing back. Join us as we challenge the status quo, share hard-won lessons, and create space for conversations that hold true to what matters most. 

Because inclusion isn’t just a nice idea; it’s a life worth fighting for. 

 

 

REA-L Conversations is a family-led podcast about supporting our family members with intellectual or developmental disabilities to live regular, equitable, authentic lives rooted in community, not separate from it.

Through honest conversation and shared learning, families explore what it takes to hold high expectations and build lives woven into the everyday fabric of our neighbourhoods and cities.

These conversations don't offer polished answers. They offer lived experience, and reminds us that inclusive lives are built with intention, small steps, strong relationships, and persistence.
