Women Speak Out on Hair Loss, Wigs, and Finding Community | ELLE administrator 4 Views • 2 years ago

More than 50 percent of women will experience noticeable hair loss in their lifetime—a change that can affect much more than their appearance. In this mini-documentary, ELLE.com explores this staggering statistic through the stories of women who’ve been there before, including Hearst executive producer Amanda Kabbabe. After being diagnosed with a rare form of ovarian cancer at 24 years old and losing her hair to chemotherapy, Kabbabe was desperate to feel like herself again. In the process, she met Charlene Aminoff, owner of Gali’s Couture Wigs, and learned about the life-changing experience that led Aminoff to open her shop. Now, Aminoff is dedicated to providing hair coverings for anyone who needs them and has extended her services to those featured in the video and more.

AIT 2023 - INTERPRETING ABOUT THE AUTISTIC SPECTRUM DISORDER ASD IN A PSI CONTEXT administrator 8 Views • 2 years ago

Abstract:
Interpreters receive little to no briefing and sometimes assignments are harder than expected to tackle. Children with autism, learning disabilities and learning difficulties receive help from a multi-disciplinary team that includes psychologists, teachers, paediatricians, psychiatrists, speech and language therapists and social workers that can meet to discuss the child’s progress and a plan forward.
The talk will cover the following:
• What is autism?
• What is a learning difficulty?
• What is a learning disability?
• The road to diagnosis
• The multi-disciplinary team
• Education arrangements
• Acronyms and jargon
