COMMISSIONS - Disability Commission
Disability Commission
This year, MCPA has strengthened its commitment to disability issues with the creation of the Disability Commission.
Mission and Responsibilities
We aim to:
- Ensure that issues surrounding disability are addressed by MCPA
- Encourage the involvement of disabled professionals in MCPA
- Encourage the involvement of professionals working in Disability and Access Services in MCPA
Events and Activities
The Disability Commission hopes to plan a spring event. Stay tuned for more information!
We would also like to invite any interested MCPA members to attend the meetings of the Minnesota Association for Higher Education and Disability (MnAHEAD). The MnAHEAD meeting schedule for this Fall is coming soon...
All MnAHEAD meetings run from 3:00-4:30 PM and a nominal fee is requested from attendees who are not members of MnAHEAD.
Please watch the website and listserv for any updates!
Help Us Encourage Involvement!
If you are a disabled professional, or someone working in disability services, help us by encouraging your colleagues to join MCPA and participate in the Commission.
If you know of a disability related issue you would like to see covered at a workshop or conference sponsored by MCPA, please contact one of the co-chairs
