Family-Led Academic Grand Rounds
Session Overview: Life is full of expectations — of ourselves, others, groups, professions, the law, ethics, morality and more. For children with disabilities, expectations are chronically low and often fueled by lack of knowledge, assumptions and apathy. One effective tool to combat these expectations and biases is to form partnerships between clinicians and families. Using stories from lived experience that illustrate examples of substandard care, dehumanization and inaccessibility, we will provide guidance on how to tackle barriers and discrimination together. Speakers:
Cara Coleman – Co-Chair of Family Led Academic Grand Rounds   Danielle Gerber – Co-Chair of Family Led Academic Grand Rounds, Family Engagement Specialist, Department of Pediatrics, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health
