Embracing Disability in the Workforce

We’ll begin the morning with a breakfast buffet and student panel, “Embracing Disability in the Workforce.”

After a brief break, we’ll welcome Keynote Speaker Gary Karp, who will draw on more than 50 years of lived experience to challenge the way we think about disability, employment, and accessibility.

We’ll wrap up the day with an employment resource fair and lunch, providing an opportunity to connect with campus and community resources.

All students, staff, and faculty are invited to join us for a day of conversation, connection, and learning as we explore practical ways to dismantle barriers and strengthen our commitment to equal opportunity and accessibility across our campus.

Staff and faculty may also sign up for Flex Credit for attending. Flex #616.
