ASUW Student Disability Commission

We are a student-run, student-lead advocacy organization within the Associated Students of University of Washington (ASUW) committed to the needs of disabled students, staff, and faculty at UW. The SDC aims to work towards a UW campus that provides equitable access and opportunities for disabled students through building upon principles of Disability Justice and Universal Access.

We understand disability as not merely an individual or medical problem, but rather the result of attitudinal and physical barriers to full participation in society. We strive to foster an environment that is not only accepting and accessible, but celebratory of people with disabilities through social, educational, and cultural programming.
