Join the Pinelands Alliance next month for a conversation with Disability Rights New Jersey staff attorneys Craig Ismaili and Regina Smith. They will share about the world of sensory disabilities by summarizing the regulations regarding inclusion and accessibility for individuals with vision impairments, deaf or hard of hearing, sensory processing disorders, and anxiety. Presenters will highlight examples from across the nation and brainstorm best practices for increasing inclusion and accessibility for the enjoyment of outdoor spaces in New Jersey.

The presenters will look at what regulatory challenges we face, as well as tools and resources that can be implemented by land managers at parks, and nature/recreational sites to make these areas more inclusive and accessible to this section of the community. At the end, attendees will have time to ask questions, as well as review considerations and tips to begin the conversation about accessibility in their own space.

When you RSVP to attend, the Zoom meeting link will be sent to you automatically by email. Make sure to check your spam/junk folder. A recording will be available if you are unable to attend.
