Keynote Lecture: Leaning Into & On Disability Community by Dr. Heather Evans
5:30pm, Friday, October 18th
Reception and art gallery begins at 4pm
Dr. Evans will draw on findings from her research on disability identity and disclosure to examine the ways that her relationship to disability community has both shaped – and been impacted by – her disclosure decisions when on the job market, while piecing together work as an adjunct, and in managing her position as the Director of a program at a large, research university.
Heather Evans earned a Ph.D. in Sociology at the University of Washington (UW). She is UW faculty and the Director of the Disability Studies Program. Heather is also the Research Director at the NW ADA Center and an Associate Director at the ADA National Network.
