FY22 Annual Report: ACADEMICS
Expanding Disability Studies
FY 2022 saw CDCI expanding our Disability Studies graduate certificate program by offering a new course designed by a self-advocate, collaborating with self-advocates on course design, and building more flexibility into courses, in order to reach a wider audience. In Summer 2022, we launched the Global Disability Studies course, and continue to partner with self- advocates in developing courses on Controversies in Disability Studies, and Disability and Self-Advocacy.
