What a Pinteresting Idea!
Pinterest, the design monolith widely known for cutesy inspirational quotes, complicated cupcake icing tutorials, and infinite wedding-palooza is more than what it appears. It’s a treasure trove of support ideas, resources and information. There’s an endless stream of ability focused content. Unconvinced? I’m sharing 5 pinteresting community living oriented ideas and products.
1. Expandable door hinges. For about $20 bucks a pop I can make my front door inclusively welcoming without a complicated renovation.
2. The StairSteady. This looks like a great way to allow safe access to basements for people with limited mobility. I’m thinking about tornado season for those of us living on the prairie.
3. This book lets you read like you have Dyslexia. I’m really into creative projects that offer insight into other perspectives and ways of living. Whenever I go to a training seminar I love this kind of immersive learning experience.
4. Enabled not Disabled poster. Who as a kid didn’t secretly want to go wild on a wheelchair?
5. The most crazy awesome piece of ear technology ever. It’s made by Design Affairs. Don’t worry if you can’t read their website, I can’t read German either. I love seeing attractive support tech. Seeing the captains of industry recognize that people with disabilities are a market worth catering to is a sign that advocates and people are getting heard.
Pinterest is particularly good for getting creative ideas on supporting children. A lot of teachers and parents are sharing techniques that are helpful for any kid that benefits from an adapted curriculum.

Inclusion System extends our profound respect and immeasurable gratitude to all the ancestors and keepers of the land on whose traditional territories our work takes place. We acknowledge that we are on Treaty 1 territory, the traditional gathering place of the Anishinaabe, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota and Dene people and the traditional homeland of the Métis people. This land is sacred, historical, and significant.
Every time we acknowledge this truth, we have an invitation and an opportunity to reflect on the wrongs of the past, what we do in the present, and what we can do to continually honour the people whose lands and water we benefit from today.
This statement only acts as a first step in honouring the land we reside on and its peoples, and must be paired with education, understanding and informed action.
