DMP Interview Questions

  When you’ve shared your experiences with your disability, how do people react? Can you tell me about a time when you were vulnerable with someone? Have you felt that same vulnerability with yourself? Tell me about a time you were forced into vulnerability. Tell us your story. What is something about you that inhibits the relationships you make with other people? Tell me a story about a relationship that has been affected by that challenge. How do you engage with others who have challenges/disabilities? How have your challenges made you more compassionate towards others with challenges? What is your disability/challenge? How does it affect your relationships?
