Show Notes
This weekend's 1 in 31 guest is Jeremy Buzzell. Jeremy is the Manager of Park Accessibility for Visitors and Employees (PAVE) program within the National Park Service. He joins us to discuss the National Park Service's growing inclusivity and accessibility initiatives, aimed at removing barriers for individuals with intellectual disabilities and physical impairments. New supports now include social stories and sensory guides for neurodiverse visitors, and additional training for NPS staff that can better respond to families' needs. Individuals with a disability can attain an America the Beautiful Access Pass for free entry to most Federal Recreation Sites.
