4 Common Mistakes People Make When Speaking Disability

1. Using Outdated Terminology

We all know that words matter. Yet, many companies are still using outdated terms like “special needs” or “handicapped.” These phrases are seen as patronizing by the disability community. Instead, use modern, respectful language such as “person with a disability,” depending on the individual’s preference.

2. Framing Disability as a Burden

Unfortunately, many companies use pity-based narrative that sensationalize everyday activities of disabled people as heroic. While these messages may seem well-meaning, they are far from it. Instead, they reduce individuals to their disabilities as well as perpetuate harmful stereotypes.

3. Ignoring Intersectionality

Disability doesn’t exist in a vacuum which means many people with disabilities also identify with other marginalized groups. Messaging that doesn’t acknowledge race, gender, sexuality, or socioeconomic status can feel incomplete or exclusive.

4. Inaccessible Communications

A core part of disability inclusion is ensuring that your communications are actually usable by everyone. This includes captions on videos, alt text on images, and readable fonts. Failing to do this sends a message that disabled people are an afterthought.

Ever wonder if you’re excluding parts of your audience without realizing it? Or saying something offensive? Our disability inclusion consulting can help with that!
