Virginia Master Naturalists Fall Webinar Series

DIVERSITY & INCLUSION IN NATURAL RESOURCE EDUCATION

​Birdability: because birding is for everybody and every body!

Presenter: Freya McGregor, OTR/L, CIG, Birdability Coordinator and Occupational Therapist.

Birding is an activity that can bring so much joy and empowerment to everybody, but not everybody is able to go birding easily. Learn about accessibility should matter to you (even if you don't have an accessibility challenge), ways to be a more welcoming and inclusive birder, and more.
