✨ Inclusion isn’t a vibe ✨

Inclusion isn’t vibes. Full stop.

It’s not a feeling in the room. It’s not “being nice.” It’s not a placement, a program, a curriculum, or a polite smile. And it’s certainly not checking a box or making someone feel happy to be invited.

Because inclusion isn’t just about being invited to the party. Let’s also full stop here.

It’s about changing the party so everyone can dance, in their own way, at their own pace, without needing to ask for permission.

Yes, being kind and welcoming is a great start.
But we can do so much better.

Inclusion is not proximity. It’s not compliance. It’s not tolerance. It’s not doing it because everyone else is doing it, you were told or mandated to do so, or because you heard it’s what’s right.

Inclusion is access. It’s purpose. It’s design.

It’s planning ahead because you know all types of learners are coming. It’s making space without needing a reason to do so.

It’s also knowing that disability doesn’t discriminate - so when we advocate, adjust, and make things more accessible, everyone benefits… not just one group of students.

Everyone can participate.
Everyone is part of the community.
Everyone is included. On purpose.

Inclusion isn’t vibes.
It’s a mindset. It’s a shared responsibility.
And it’s long past time we treated it like both.
