As part of the 8th Annual Inclusive Schools Week, ISN hosted a screening and discussion of the documentary Including Samuel with filmmaker Dan Habib.  This film examines issues related to inclusive education and honestly portrays the experiences of Habib’s son Samuel, who has cerebral palsy, and four other individuals with disabilities.  Including Samuel is currently being broadcast nationally on PBS.  You can download video clips of Dan Habib and others talking about his work and discussing important issues related to inclusive education or download toolkits for hosting an Including Samuel viewing party (be sure to visit the official Including Samuel website for information on the toolkits and how to register your movie party) here:
