Dr. Justine Green grew up with a hearing loss that never held her back from succeeding in life.  Dr. Green earned a Ph.D with a doctorate in education specializing in students with disabilities and has worked in special education until her position was furloughed by COVID.

Dr. Green used that opportunity to write a book about her experiences growing u with hearing loss.  She has also written tow other books about others who have grown up with ADHD and a young person who is growing up with CP.

Dr. Green shares her insights on not allowing her hearing loss define who she is, and how she turned moments that were meant to hurt her into teachable moments in life.

3 TAKEAWAYS TO LISTEN FOR:

1.     The difference between mainstreaming and inclusion in schools

2.     How to turn a bad interaction into a teachable moment of disability.

3.     How you can get your (or your child’s) story of growing up with a disability turned into a children’s book.
