Focus for 2023

My focus this year is to:

  • Finding a way for students who can't access a diagnosis to get a CAP.
  • Pushing for an 'Accessibility Audit' of all spaces on campus. When we know the issues, we can start addressing them!
  • Making sure all students can fully enjoy campus by increasing allergen-friendly food options, quiet and low-sensory spaces, and accessibility of events. 
  • Building a more efficient CAP adjustment system that will allow reasonable adjustments to be implemented as quickly as possible. No student should miss classes because of their access requirements.
  • Increasing awareness and support for disabled students and allies through campaigns and events!

About Rey

I am a Pharmacy student, who got involved in the Guild due to a lack of basic accessibility on campus, and an interest in inclusion. I am passionate about disability advocacy and equitable access for all students – irrespective of their diagnosis or lack thereof. My perspective is informed by experience with multiple disabilities affecting my mobility, cognition, social interactions, sensory processing, and energy levels (among others). I intend to amplify the voices of students on campus and ensure we all have a say on what happens with our fees.
