The symposium is a culmination of a three-year IHC grant driven by a community advisory group made up of persons with disabilities and/or lived experience with disabilities, community partners, a community observational assessment and surveying area service providers. This led to a focus on the significant unmet needs related to accessibility and access to services for person with mental health issues and other disabilities.

Symposium sessions are being led by subject matter experts on topics such as special considerations for mental health clinician treating persons with intellectual development disabilities; blindness and low vison; deaf or hard of hearing; disability awareness and inclusion as well as a presentation from the Division of Disability Services.
