Our online Real Talk group centers on issues of the day: pandemic fatigue, isolation, COVID brain, antiracism, re-engagement in the world post-pandemic, new "normals," etc. Using Zoom to create a safe space for individuals with disabilities, we give each other and take the space needed to process our responses.
