Abstract

The authors - a faculty member from the humanities, a chief diversity officer and a student leader - offer a "lessons-learned" essay in which they describe providing an LGBTQ+ ally education workshop to a group of adults with developmental disabilities. We describe the the obstacles and the payoffs of collaboration across academic units and roles and a commitment not merely to adapt curriculum with accessiblity in mind but to radically reimagine it, and, in the process, more fully coming to embrace the idea of universal design.
