Opening Reception

Through this accessible exhibit, uncover the stories behind a moment in history when people with disabilities successfully held protests across the country to get Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 signed into law, which ultimately made it illegal for any federally funded facilities or programs to discriminate against disabled people. Experience additional stories and experiences from the UW-Stout disability community.

Sponsored by OSOE and presented in collaboration with the Library, Involvement Center, TRIO SSS, Disability Services, SVRI, and Neurodiversity Club
