ADA Advisory Committee’s (formerly ADA Policy Advisory Committee) purpose is to provide Western Kentucky University (WKU) personnel (faculty, staff, and students) with valuable information to enhance effectiveness in providing a campus environment free of discrimination and bias towards individuals with disabilities. This committee will also offer direction to tools and resources necessary to gain access to programs and services that will enable individuals with disabilities to function as independently as possible in a supportive atmosphere.

Accessibility is a civil right, and WKU is truly committed to being a welcoming and inclusive university dedicated to the equality of educational and employment opportunities.
