Gurecka, Louis E.; Gent, Pamela J.
Michigan Journal of Community Service Learning, v8 n1 p36-43 Fall 2001
Asserts that many service learning projects are rife with disablism, a set of assumptions and practices that promote the differential or unequal treatment of people because of actual or presumed disabilities. Discusses four common images about people with disabilities that may guide selection of service projects for them. Offers suggestions to eliminate disablism in service projects. (EV)
