Abstract
PROJECT NARRATIVE The purpose of this R25 Diversity Action Plan grant proposal is to create a program that will equip students with disabilities with mentoring, research, and curricular resources that facilitate their advancement towards becoming members of the ELSI community of scholars. Disability rights advocates argue conversations about disability, policy decisions affecting people with disabilities, and technological developments impacting disabled lives should include members of the disability community; however, this demand??nothing about us without us??is hindered by the fact that individuals with disabilities are underrepresented in academia. The proposed program is designed to embrace this demand by creating a future generation of ELSI scholars who have experience living with disability.
