December 3 is the International Day of Persons with Disabilities

The International Day of Persons with Disabilities on December 3 seeks to increase awareness of the experience of persons with disabilities in all areas of society, including at ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú. Individuals within the ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú campus community are affected by various disabilities, which can be visible or invisible. They are experienced differently by each person and can intersect with other forms of identity. ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú is committed to making a difference to all who are historically underrepresented and underserved, and aims to recognize, include, and support them.
