Inclusion. Belonging. Shared Humanity. Disabilities.

Join us for an EMPOWERING half-day symposium designed to UPLIFT voices and CELEBRATE the diversity of experiences among individuals with genetic, physical, behavioral, or intellectual differences.

Attendees will engage with inspiring stories, form meaningful connections, and promote education and advocacy. We aim to model inclusion through our shared humanity and acknowledgment of more similarities than differences.

Together, let’s embrace our shared humanity, focusing on unity over division. Be a part of the movement where our commonalities shine and our differences are celebrated.

Attendees are welcome to come and go as they please throughout the in-person event at EPNEC. For a map and parking information, please click here.

Washington University School of Medicine is committed to inclusion. If you are a person with a disability who requires reasonable accommodation to participate in this event, at least one week before the event, don’t hesitate to get in touch with Deven Stepney in advance at devens@wustl.edu.

A recording of the keynotes and panel sessions will be available following the event.
