National Center for Learning Disabilities
National Center for Learning Disabilities: NCLD Credo: Let no children be demeaned, or have their wonder diminished, because of our ignorance or inactivity; Let no adults be deprived of discovery, because we lack the resources to discover their learning needs; Let neither children nor adults—ever—doubt themselves or their minds because we are unsure of our commitment.
Removing the Stumbling Block
Removing the Stumbling Block is run by Lisa Friedman.
As an award-winning Disability Inclusion Expert I know that each of us has a right to belong. I have been working with faith communities, organizations, schools, and camps for over twenty years; guiding staff, clergy, and families in the development of genuine inclusive practice. Through interactive workshops, dialogue, and keynote speeches I help organizations to actively live their values. My broad expertise in psychology, counseling, education, and Jewish communal life enables me to hone interactive and effective training sessions for all skill levels. A hallmark of my sessions is the seamless blending of both modeling and skill-building.
