Introducing the WeGotYou Monthly Splash from the @lifeathumber Digital Communications team.

We are part of the Office of the Dean of Students here at Humber and our goal is to highlight services available to students, amplify student events and share student stories pertaining to life at Humber. Look for us on Instagram. 

We are thrilled to bring you the first edition of our monthly newsletter, called the "WeGotYou Monthly Splash."  

Get ready to dive into the highlights of the past month and explore what's on the horizon. 

In each issue of the WeGotYou Monthly Splash, you will read about: 

• Highlights of the Month: Revisit the memorable moments, achievements, and milestones from the past month. From event successes to student stories, we've got it all.
• Upcoming Events: Stay in the loop with a list of upcoming events offered for students.

We invite you to explore the WeGotYou Monthly Splash.

The @lifeathumber team is all about building awareness of student supports and events for students, and we want to hear from YOU.

If you have a student event open to all students, and want to share in the next WeGotYou "Monthly Splash" please contact Tannaz Barati by email at tannaz.barati@humber.ca.

We often hear: “Yes, disability accommodations exist at Humber and UGH, but how will students manage in the real world?” 

The Real-World Spotlight series consists of interviews conducted by Accessible Learning Services (ALS) with Humber and UGH alumni with disabilities who accessed ALS and other campus supports.  

This week we are featuring Dilshan Jayasinghe - Bachelor of Business Administration at the University of Guelph-Humber.

The goal of the series is to highlight how learners with disabilities transition into the workforce and their experiences navigating accommodations. In celebration of October being National Disability Employment Awareness Month, we will post a unique Student Spotlight for the next three weeks.  

The interviews focused on: the accommodations they found helpful as a Humber and UGH learner, the support they receive from their current employers, how they handled disclosure of their disability, and how Humber and UGH can help future learners with disabilities.

Learn more about Disability Justice:

• Disability Justice is a framework that sees inherent value in all bodies.  

• The concept began in 2005 by disabled activists of colour, originally queer women of colour Patty Berne, Mia Mingus, and Stacey Milbern, to be joined by Leroy Moore, Eli Clare and Sebastian Margaret.  

• The framework of Disability Justice was developed from conversations and experiences of the lack of addressing ableism within other movements. 

• It challenges the idea that our worth is determined by our ability to perform or produce in our society 

• Disability justice holds that forms of oppression cannot be separated from each other. 

• There are 10 Principles of Disability Justice. Please see the attached document to learn more about each of these principles.
