Program Abstract:
Disability justice has been framed by disabled students, disability activists and disability scholars as those socio-cultural forces that sustain universal participation for all persons. How might we integrate such a disability justice framework with college health standards such as the “ACHA Guidelines for Cultural Competency”? Utilizing practices from three campuses, this workshop will explore concepts of intentional inclusion as they currently, and in the future, may influence institutional wellness practices, technologies, programming and policy development. Additionally, the presentation will outline core domains that college health leaders may use to work effectively with disabled students to support their academic, personal, and professional success.
