概要

Jubilee Dueck-Thiessen is the Executive Director of the Manitoba Down Syndrome Society. She started with MDSS as a student, spent years at L'Arche Winnipeg leading community programs and a major accessibility-focused art exhibit, and has now returned to MDSS to lead the organization.


In this episode, she makes a case for seeing disability not through a medical lens, asking what's wrong and how to fix it, but through a social one: asking what barriers society has built, and how we start tearing them down.


From reframing Down syndrome diagnoses as something to celebrate rather than apologize for, to questioning whether our standards of independence and productivity were ever designed for everyone, Jubilee brings a perspective on disability rights and inclusive community that's worth sitting with.
