Working With Ableism and Lookism

For the topic this week, some of your fellow learners have created a presentation that contextualizes practice with clients impacted by ableism and lookism.

• Each group member should post a link to the recording of the collaborative presentation and a list of all the learners in the group. Then, post a reflection on the process as well as other thoughts you have on the topics you would like to expand on.

Learners who did not create a presentation for this week's topic should view the recording and the reflections of the presenters. Then, use your post to discuss one or more of the following:

• What are the key factors that need to be addressed when working with clients impacted by ableism and lookism?
• What techniques could be used in practice to address or accommodate some of these factors?
• What are some of the strengths and weaknesses of these different techniques?
• Are there similarities among these groups?
• Are there similarities between any of these groups and the groups you researched?
• How would you incorporate the key factors and anti-oppressive practice into your plan for working with clients from these groups?
