Disability as Diversity: A Conversation for Students

It’s Invisible Disability Week, and we’re excited to bring more visibility to disabilities on campus by launching a student conversation group!

We welcome students who face diverse disabilities to a conversation about navigating life with a disability. Led by a senior social work major who lives with a disability, this group will allow students to share their experiences, consider connections between disability and spirituality, hear from each other, and talk in a safe space with other students with disabilities. 

This group will meet for an hour and a half on the Newberg campus on Monday, Oct. 26, or Wednesday, Oct. 28, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. (Lemmons 14).

After one meeting, the group members will decide whether or not to continue meeting. Each group is limited to six participants, but we will work to provide groups for all who are interested. SPIL credit is available.

To RSVP, sign up here. Questions? Contact Alyssa Overcash (aovercash16@georgefox.edu) or Andrea Byerley (abyerley@georgefox.edu). Be sure to follow us on instagram (gfu.accessibility).
