"That's what I meant to say"
Use "People First Language" when referring to someone's medical or other temporary condition.

"People with disabilities" describes what a person has, while "disabled people" describes who a person is. We are not our disabilities, so put the person first!
Diversity + Effectiveness Training
"...I'm truly amazed. The three modules used were most effective as they dealt with stereotypes, flexibility in solving challenges, and the understanding to reduce prejudices and biases."  
- John W. Washington, Assistant Superintendant,
Garland ISD [Read the complete letter here.]

Written Communication
"Patty is phenomenal.  With mere introductory words from me and a few pictures she was able to create a website that not only fit my needs but reflected me in such a way that it appeared she knew me personally. She moved so quickly on the project that I had to catch up with her.  She instinctively conceptualized what I would never have been able to articulate and delivered beyond my expectations."
- Judge Cheryl Lee Shannon, Dallas, TX

What Is Communication?

"The two words 'information' and 'communication' are often used interchangeably, but they signify quite different things. Information is giving out; communication is getting through."
