Journey Through Advocacy: A Career in Occupational Therapy and Education

Qudsiya is back with your listener favorite from Season 2—Designing Access for Disabled Students.

Qudsiya spoke with Roger Ideishi about his efforts to challenge traditional approaches to occupational therapy by insisting that students with intellectual and developmental disabilities play a central role in shaping their own classroom experiences. Roger has also championed the inclusion of disabled people in arts and culture. In 2022, he was honored as part of The Kennedy Center’s Next 50 leaders and change-makers in the arts.
