Closing the equity gap for children with disabilities remains a thorny challenge. One where more conversations and tangible action need to be taken. Its under this lens I present to you the 4th episode of Inclusive Beginnings. Where we’ll examine the treatment of black children and their experiences navigating service delivery within the educational system.   Adding their voices to this conversation are Christopher Rudder who serves as the only black male resource consultant in the city of Toronto. Rudder discussed how to close the inequities experienced by black children and families with disabilities, improving racial relations and more. Meanwhile, Nerissa Hutchinson is a child and youth practitioner and therapist who has a daughter with a disability. Both bring a critically important and insightful angle to this noteworthy conversation.  As we all look to ensure black children with disabilities have equal access to and equitable education.
