Local Disability Awareness with ABLE
-
Narrated by:

Written by:
Disability awareness starts with listening to the people living it. Tala spoke with ABLE Youth Executive Director Amy Saffell and Alexandra Jobe, a young Middle Tennessee woman who came through the organization’s program, about independence, accessibility and creating a more inclusive community.
Both wheelchair users, Amy and Alexandra bring personal perspectives to the conversation. Alexandra shares her story of living with a disability and how ABLE Youth has been part of her journey. We also explore the organization’s work helping young people who use wheelchairs build confidence, develop independence and find community.
Plus, they discuss the call for Nashville to make its spaces more accessible and ADA compliant—and why access matters in everyday life. From navigating public places to participating in community activities, people like Amy and Alexandra deserve the opportunity to take part fully.
