DPT Students Libby & Gabby

Elizabeth Rush-LaRue and Gabby Beard hosting their conversation, "Accessibility in Public Spaces for Individuals with Disabilities."

 

"The Social Justice Coalition hosted a conversation regarding accessibility in public spaces for individuals with disabilities on February 21st. Topics of conversation included the challenges of navigating New York's subway system in a wheelchair and how intense the process of flying becomes for an individual who utilizes a wheelchair. The conversation touched on ways physical therapists may be able to aid and avenues for advocacy to pressure big airline and transit corporations to make the necessary changes for equal access." - Elizabeth Rush-LaRue and Gabby Beard
