However, care is also complicated- it's not always been safe or accessible for many of us to give, ask for and receive the care we need, and we often face conditions of scarcity. However, we know as disabled people we are creative and resourceful in figuring out how to get our needs met, even if it's in deeply imperfect conditions.Transcript Here
