“That Wasn’t In the Plan”

• Inclusion is required by law
• Plan with, not for: People with disabilities at the planning table
• Accessibility: Think of “space,” “matter,” “time,” and “energy” (Haagaard, 2022)
• Break down siloes incl. public health and emergency management
• Consider the impact of intersectionality
