COMMITTEE ON ACCESSIBILITY

MISSION

The Standing Committee on Accessibility aims to increase the presence and participation of disabled scholars as well as the presence of scholarship on disability within the WHA. It is our goal to make the WHA an inclusive and accessible environment for disabled scholars at every level and be an organization that embraces many different historical perspectives on the history of the American West. The committee supports all WHA organizations to achieve and foster inclusion. Please review the WHA's Accessibility Statement on the organization's home page.
