Thresholds
Thresholds is a new Koffler.Digital podcast hosted and produced by Maya Bedward in collaboration with members of Holland Bloorview’s Youth Advisory Council. Presented in 5 parts, each episode of Thresholds explores the experiences of these youth with disabilities, as they transition into the adult world.
The production of Thresholds took place over the fall of 2019, and was comprised of workshops exploring dialogue, storytelling and sound design. The result is a series of conversations that span topics such as dating, traveling, queer identity, and transportation, all within the context of navigating disability.

Each episode is also available for download via Apple Podcasts or Soundcloud.
