This reception will launch a year-long celebration of the historic legislation that provided
civil rights to individuals with disabilities. This reception and the 25th ADA initiative will
create an opportunity to explore the narratives of individuals with disabilities at Ohio State
and how they help shape the campus climate and culture, adding to the mosaic of our
diverse community.
