Developmental Disabilities Lecture Series – Cultivating Change through an Intersectional Lens

Presented by Andy Arias, National Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility Policy and Subject Matter Expert, this session of The Boggs Center’s Developmental Disabilities Lecture Series, "Cultivating Change through an Intersectional Lens: Revolutionizing Systems of Care and Employment Opportunities for People with Disabilities," will delve into the power of diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) to strengthen care systems and employment opportunities for individuals with developmental disabilities. Through an intersectional DEIA lens, we will uncover the potential for diverse resources and viewpoints to drive systemic change.

Attendees will acquire practical knowledge on fostering a culture of hope within service systems, ensuring that all individuals, regardless of their circumstances, receive the support they deserve to flourish. Equip yourself with a clear vision and strategies for a future where systems are not only strong but also authentically represent the communities they support.

The lecture series will be held on the Zoom Webinar platform. To access the webinars, you must register in advance on the Boggs Center Online Registration System. 

The webinars are free of charge. Space is limited for each of the sessions. Open to people who live or work in New Jersey. Read our FAQs document (PDF) to learn more.
