Social Creatures Presents at the National Disability Forum
Edited by Stephen Braren
Last month, at the request of the Social Security Administration of the United States of America, Social Creatures presented at the National Disability Forum. We were asked to discuss the crisis facing children in America as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are reposting our National Disability Forum presentation materials in The Creature Times to amplify our messaging regarding the mental health impacts of COVID-19 on children and caregivers, as well as our recommendations for COVID-relief and recovery efforts. To check out our original presentation, along with all of the other fantastic National Disability Forum presenters’ materials, we direct you to the Social Security Administration website.
Editor’s Note: The following is a transcript of an oral presentation delivered by Dr. Rose Perry to the National Disability Forum on April 15, 2021. It has been slightly edited for clarity.
