LATEST PODCAST EPISODES

Green Mountain Disability Stories is a monthly podcast featuring stories told by Vermonters with disabilities, about their experiences, opinions, and the systems that support and thwart them. Watch episodes on YouTube or subscribe to the show on Apple Podcasts, subscribe on Spotify, the Google Play Store, or wherever you get your podcasts.

 

EPISODE 22: 

In this episode, UVM faculty member and academics coordinator Winnie Looby interviews Vermont artist Leah Schulz. Leah's art directly references her experiences of multiple disabilities, as well as addressing and incorporating elements of who she was before she became disabled. We'll hear from Leah about her journey as an artist, as well as how disability shapes her art, and what it's like to be back on the UVM campus -- this time as an exhibitor, instead of a student.

 

EPISODE 21: 

In this episode, we're excited to welcome Michele Streeter to the show. Michele is mom to Ocean and April Streeter, two siblings you met in Episode 20. Michele talks about what it's been like to provide support and guidance for a child with a disability as they navigate the transition to adulthood, post-secondary education, and independent living. Michele Streeter is also a Family Resource Consultant for the Vermont I-Team.

 

EPISODE 20: 

Ocean Streeter lives in Hyde Park, Vermont, with cerebral palsy (CP) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). And in this episode, Ocean talks with her sibling, April Streeter, about academic accommodations, independent living, self-advocacy, and the road Ocean's currently on to becoming a published author.
