This is a monthly meeting and it includes faculty/staff members from the research, clinical and community organizations. The meeting is the 3rd Monday of every month.

For our November meeting, we welcome Barb Byers, parent and professional of two adult children with disabilities. She joins us this month as a representative of the group “Washtenaw Lifespan”. The group started when she and several other parents felt like they had no options for their loved ones when they aged out of educational services. They join us this month with the interest of improving healthcare through collaboration to make it easier to find healthcare that is appropriate for their adult loved ones with disabilities.

If you would like to be added to our disability research mailing list, please email disability-health-research-requests@umich.edu or you may add yourself to the group by visiting the Disability Health Research Group MCommunity page and click 'Join Group'.
