Our Programs

Throughout the year, the AdA presents educational programming and hosts events aimed at increasing awareness and encouraging the idea that a disability should not be seen as a limitation, but rather as a sign of perseverance, strength, and determination. Our programs are open to and benefit the entire Cal Poly Pomona community.

Diversity Champions

Each year, AdA selects 2 diversity champions who have demonstrated a commitment to increasing disability awareness and to promoting access and equity for individuals with disabilities throughout the Cal Poly Pomona campus community.
