#37: Use respectful terminiology

in ,

Check your posted signs, documents, and website language for mentions of people with disabilities. Re-word any references that use outmoded or offensive language. Figuring out the best terminology can be a challenge, but getting rid of the worst terminology should be easy. While there there is not a clear consensus on preferred language (unsurprising since the number of people with disabilities is so large), there is consensus about a large number of terms that should not be used.
