Connecting disability to … life as a Black family

  • Summary

  • "This month, we are celebrating love and remembering Black History Month with Clovis and Sherron Grant. Clovis and Sherron are the co-founders of Sawubona Africentric Circle of Support, an organization dedicated to helping Black families get the resources they need to support loved ones who live with a disability. Clovis and Sherron have a lot of insight about family life and responding to difficult social expectations. I really hope you learn as much from them as I did.
