Multiple Perspectives on Access, Inclusion & Disability is hosted by the Office of Institutional Equity at the Ohio State University and supported by the generosity of Margaret Stanton and the Ethel Louise Armstrong Endowment Fund.  As a modern land grant university serving the wider community as a catalyst for positive change and a springboard for collaborations is central to our mission. Since 2000, each year the university’s ADA Coordinator has identified series of workshops and public events that provide a forum to expand our understanding of disability as integral to human experience and create opportunities to increase community resources through the synergy of collaboration. Since 2017 Multiple Perspectives has partnered with the Society for Disability Studies<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/disstudies.org/index.php/about-sds/__;!!KGKeukY!lpEntfGz994La7Q6ak7UGy88oPXvRXLsOYQfk8QilvBNwM5A1eBC6ztY6Qgy0ZPt$> to expand the program and support emerging scholarship. In 2018 TOPS<https://u.osu.edu/tops/> (Transition Options for Postsecondary Settings) became a partner, expanding the community that has formed around the conference.
