Refreshments will be served and documentation for continuing ed hours is available upon request.

#5 Building Ally Culture & Community: In the final conversation of this series we’ll explore what allyship looks like, identify concrete actions we can take, explore opportunities for continued education, celebrate and uplift the disabled community, and take the Disability Solidarity Pledge.
