Join us for Breaking Barriers: Promoting Advocacy and Finding Support with Disabilities and Chronic Illnesses, an interactive discussion that will explore the various landscapes surrounding disabilities and chronic illnesses - including individual experiences, systemic inequities, and institutional barriers - and offer a space of reflection and engagement. We welcome everyone, from those who want to share their journey to those who want to open themselves to new perspectives and learn how to support their peers better. A guest from the SPS Wellness Office will join us during the conversation and will be available to answer any questions and offer resources.
This conversation will take place virtually. A meeting link will be shared with registered guests before each session.
