Accessibility Advisory Board (AAB)

The AAB was founded in 2022 by current assistant director of the ARO Abigail Bradshaw. They are made up of current students, staff, faculty, and alumni, many of whom identify as having a disability. They advise the ARO and work on accessibility initiatives across campus— raising disability awareness, opening conversations and creating community, and asking for institutional work towards accessibility.

For more information, to raise an accessibility concern, or to get involved, please email abradshaw@westmont.edu.
