The ASSU Executive Cabinet will host events for Stanford Disabilities Week
starting Tuesday in an effort to raise awareness of disability issues and
advocacy on campus. The week will culminate in the opening of the Abilities
Hub, a new spot on campus for people with disabilities as well as the broader
community.

The programming was spearheaded by ASSU Cabinet members and Disability
Co-leads Zina Jawadi '18 and Bryce Tuttle '18, who are former president and
president, respectively, of Power2ACT, a disability advocacy organization on
campus. Jawadi and Tuttle hope the week’s events foster a safe and inclusive
space for students with and without disabilities to discuss everyday
challenges faced by disabled students, on and off campus.
