Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Inclusion Works Best When Everyone Plays Together
Q: Where can organizations reach out to learn more or collaborate?
They can contact Morgan's Inclusion Institute via morganinclusioninstitute.org to start conversations about training, assessments, and virtual programs for their teams.
Inclusion Works Best When Everyone Plays Together
Q: How can other organizations learn from Morgan's inclusion practices?
We engage with vendors and industries through the Morgan's Inclusion Institute, share lessons from our town-hall approach with hundreds of participant insights, and encourage adoption of simple, high-impact changes like accessible hiring and captioned materials.
Inclusion Works Best When Everyone Plays Together
Q: What kinds of attractions do you offer to balance accessibility with fun?
We prioritize accessible experiences over traditional roller coasters, including a 4D theater that uses a chair-based system and, crucially, wheelchair platforms that allow the same experience for guests in wheelchairs as for others.
Inclusion Works Best When Everyone Plays Together
Q: How long has Morgan's Wonderland been around?
The park opened in 2010, marking over a decade of growth and continued expansion into a water park and a forthcoming hotel, all with a focus on ultra accessibility.
Employers Cannot Fix What Workers Fear To Share
Q: Why is addiction still treated differently from other health conditions at work?
There is a persistent stigma and outdated perceptions about addiction as a moral failing or lifestyle choice, which leads to fear of disclosure and a lack of supportive policies. Evidence shows brain changes and the treatable nature of addiction, arguing for healthcare-style responses in the workplace.
