Two things that I’m incredibly passionate about, economic empowerment for the disability community and making travel more accessible, have come together for our latest announcement… I’m so excited to launch this first-of-its-kind Airbnb Entrepreneurship Academy in partnership with United Spinal Association to support their community to become Hosts on Airbnb And there has never been a better time for people with accessible homes to try hosting - we have seen searches for places with accessibility features increase by over 40% in the last year! Thank you to our incredible partners at United Spinal and the whole team at Airbnb who made this happen - in particular Laura Rillos , Trisha Todman, MS, QMHP (she/her) , Andrew Hutchinson and Stephanie Ursula Hodges Check out more info in the newsroom post and stay tuned for future collaborations to help make hosting mainstream for the disability community 🚀 #accessibletravel #accessibility #GAAD #GlobalAccessibilityAwarenessDay #airbnb
With searches for homes with accessibility features up 40% in the last year, we’re excited to partner with the United Spinal Association to introduce the mobility community to hosting on Airbnb.
This is a great perspective to take and a wonderfully positive move.
Very clever and absolutely makes sense. People who need and understand accessibility can earn income providing more accessible options. I hope a similar project comes to the UK soon!
We couldn’t do any of this without your leadership! Amazing work.
So much good in this news! Keep being an awesome trailblazer, Suzanne Edwards!
Congratulations- this is incredibly important work!
This is very exciting!
