Haley Moss

Speech Topics

• Assorted Topics on Autism, Neurodiversity, Disability Inclusion

• Empowering the Next Generation of Neurodiverse Self-Advocates

  Often when we think of advocacy, we think of effecting policy change or work that our lawmakers do. However, self-advocacy for people on the autism spectrum is an entirely different ballgame and covers a lot of ground - it can be effective communication in personal, educational, and professional settings. It could be as simple as saying yes or no, or as complicated as standing up for your rights, or creating change. Furthermore, advocacy skills can be used to create positive change for autistic individuals, their families, friends, allies, and their communities. This session aims to bust advocacy myths, encourage self-advocacy, teach self- advocacy skills and strategies, and also inform all communities about larger goals and issues being tackled that self-advocacy skills could be valuably applied to.

• Assembly Required: My Journey From Nonverbal to Attorney

  Autism does not come with an instruction manual, but it does come with lots of magical parts and important tools to utilize to build the best life possible. Assembly Required is the story of Haley Moss: an autistic attorney who has gone from a nonverbal child diagnosed with autism at age 3, to an author, artist, attorney, and autism advocate. This keynote explores Haley’s journey, the assembly of her village, finding her written and spoken voice, and looking to the future full of hope for autism’s next generation and the future, and excitement as she writes the next, ongoing chapter in her life.

• The Language of Disability and the Inclusion Revolution

  Stereotypes, stigmas, and notions of ableism make disability a sensitive topic to discuss among ourselves, with families, and with disabled people. Nuances in the language surrounding disabilities make the discussion even more difficult for non-disabled friends, colleagues, and community members to join. Too often, those best equipped to teach the language of disability — people with disabilities themselves — are silenced and unheard, rather than empowered to lead the conversation on disability inclusion in society. As part of this session, the audience is invited to join the "Inclusion Revolution" to build a bridge between people with and without disabilities by facilitating effective, real conversation in a meaningful and productive way. Attendees will enjoy a candid, no fluff conversation about disability, allyship, and removal of barriers to access from the personal perspective.

• Granting Access: Dismantling Ableism and Embracing Neurodiversity

  Storytelling has so much power for young people with disabilities – but the ways our stories are often told leave us silenced or unheard. This happens because ableism is pervasive in our culture. Ableism often can be internalized by people with disabilities in a way that negatively impacts our own self-worth, self-esteem, and decisions to share our identities with the world. Those same attitudes also are grounded in stereotypes that hold us back throughout our lives. How do we get rid of barriers to access to be more inclusive and allow people with disabilities to fully be themselves? Join Haley for a candid conversation where she tells her own story – all while attendees learn about ableism, neurodiversity, and how access is a form of care and compassion that benefits us all.
