Welcome to the DAA! My name is Chelsea :) Im the Publicist and one of the four officers of our group. Please reach out to disabilityalliance@pdx.edu or over google chat if you have any questions or suggestions for the group or are in need of resources!
This is the link to our discord: https://discord.gg/gufw6me48m and you are being added to our google chat where we discuss upcoming meetings and events. Please introduce yourself in the google chat! You can access it on the Google chat app or in gmail by clicking the "Chat" box next to the conversation bubble on the left side toolbar.
I'm pleased to give some announcements:
We will be having a movie screening of the documentary, Crip Camp, at 5th avenue theater on October 9 (see flyer). If you have interest in attending, please fill out this form for accommodation requests ahead of time.
We would love for volunteers to help table at this event. Please reach out if interested in helping!
DAA leadership has been working with 5th avenue this summer developing a 'sensory friendly' accommodation. Your attendance will help 5th avenue develop a better understanding of student needs.
After the movie night we will commence in person meetings regularly, as well as holding a board game session.
I hope you have a great fall term, and welcome to the DAA!
