## Resource

🤕 Today, September 3, is the one-year anniversary of being assaulted boarding a bus in Toronto in my wheelchair. I have permanent injuries and over $10,000 of additional costs* as a result. But I still enjoy taking public transit. 🎙️Curb Cuts and Conversations is a monthly podcast about accessible urbanism, public transit, and wheelchair life with experts and lived experience voices. Hosted by Elizabeth McCready with regular cameos by one of her two cats Boo, and a different guest every episode. Watch on YouTube! Merch Shop!

All show and merch shop artwork is designed in Toronto, Canada by Elizabeth McCready. No AI is used in the design process!
