Webinar: Let’s Talk About Recycling and Accessibility
The Nebraska Recycling Council will be hosting a webinar on Thursday, July 8 from 12:00 noon-1:00 p.m. CDT on accessibility and recycling. This webinar will feature two panelists, Hillary Scanlon, Founder and CEO of STILSOLUTIONS in Toronto, Canada, and Gloria Eddins, the ADA Coordinator for the State of Nebraska. According to the CDC, 25.6% of adults in the United States live with a disability. In Nebraska, 22.2% of adults live with a disability. We will hear from two women with physical disabilities on what their experience as a citizen has been with recycling, to name and address any barriers to making recycling accessible, and discuss recommendations and solutions to the Nebraska recycling industry for people with disabilities. This is an important topic for the recycling industry to consider, and we are excited to welcome Hillary and Gloria into the conversation.
