Cultural constructs, social cultural contexts

Community: Communities are groups of people who share common interests or characteristics such as geographic proximity or similar backgrounds. Communities usually have distinct cultures that members adhere too; these cultures may be based on social classifications like race/ethnicity or religion. Community activities typically involve shared goals such as education initiatives for children or development projects for neighborhoods (Chavis et al., 1986). Workplace Disability Focus: Workplace disability focus refers to workplace policies designed to promote an inclusive environment for persons with disabilities. These policies may include reasonable accommodations for employees with disabilities including adjustments to job tasks or hours worked; access to assistive technology; access ramps into buildings; modified workspaces; supportive counselling services; anti-discrimination laws and programs providing career training opportunities (Rehabilitation Services Administration [RSA], 2021).
