It is about giving all people an equal chance. To stop fearing change and what we don't understand. To start embracing our differences and learning from one another. Take the opportunity to include and to stretch yourself creatively. The ultimate goal of inclusion means the exclusion of barriers to access.
Inclusion occurs on an individual level as well as on a program level.
It is not enough to mandate inclusion. The mandate motivates those who are open to thinking about how to make change. It is the group who does not have room in its busy mind to accommodate another thought about changing a system. A system, which they believe, is working. This lack of choosing not to notice is the most important barrier to inclusion.
