Boldly Challenging Ableism – S2 E8: A Decades Long Legacy of Advocacy with Linda Wolford (Pt 2 of 2)
In the second part of this two-part series, Katrina Simon sits down with Linda Wolford from the Minnesota Council on Disability to dig into the real story behind “enhanced rate” for personal care assistants in Minnesota. Linda clarifies how this policy actually came to be through the hard work of disability activists rather than the union, highlighting the ongoing struggle to make sure caregivers are fairly compensated for higher levels of care. It’s a powerful conversation about the history of disability activism and why it’s so important for people to stay vocal and engaged with their legislators to protect essential services.
