In this episode we meet Amanda Yurick, Associate Professor, Special Education at Cleveland State University. The Covid-19  Pandemic has impacted nearly every facet of our everyday lives. We have  seen and felt these effects within our healthcare systems, economy and  workforce, transportation sectors, mental  health needs and services, and certainly the field of education is  implicated as well. How we educate our children and youth saw some  dramatic shifts from in-person to remote structures, which left the  inequities that have always existed glaringly apparent  in the light that Covid shed on our uneven access to resources. At  Cleveland State we have help adapt the classroom for local students  through our CLC (Community Learning Center).
