Disability Sensitivity Workshop
An Interactive Workshop Led by Individuals with Lived Experiences
The Disability Sensitivity Workshop is designed to help businesses and organizations create a more inclusive, understanding, and supportive environment. A practical and interactive journey through the disability spectrum, the workshop comes complete with real-world strategies and examples for engaging the disability community.
OSCIL caters to a wide range of audiences including businesses, schools, government agencies, healthcare providers, and community organizations. Each workshop is facilitated by two individuals with lived experience who tailor the content and approach (in person or via Zoom) to suit the specific needs of the participants. This workshop can be a powerful tool in building and maintaining a diverse and inclusive culture within your business or organization. It reflects the importance of ongoing education and training and provides resources for continued learning beyond the workshop session.
Benefits of Sensitivity Training
Conflict Resolution
Sensitivity training often includes conflict resolution skills, which can be invaluable in both personal and professional settings. Participants learn how to handle disagreements and conflicts in a constructive and respectful manner.
Enhanced Teamwork
When individuals in a team or organization become more aware of each other's backgrounds and perspectives, it can lead to improved teamwork and collaboration. Teams that understand and respect each other's differences are often more cohesive and productive.
Addressing Microaggressions
Sensitivity training often addresses microaggressions—subtle, often unintentional acts of discrimination or insensitivity. Learning to recognize and address microaggressions is an important step in creating more inclusive environments.
Compliance with Regulations
Many organizations are required by law to provide diversity and inclusion training. Sensitivity training helps organizations comply with these regulations, reducing the risk of legal issues related to discrimination and harassment.
