The Disability Advocacy Coalition in Medicine (DAC Med) student affinity group of Northwestern University and national leadership hosts an annual virtual conference for trainees.
Through thoughtful sessions, reflective panels and workshops, presenters and attendees discuss and learn about how graduate health professional students can advocate for patients with disabilities, support peers with disabilities, and address ableism in medicine and medical education.
Real-time captioning and ASL interpretation is present during all sessions. Additional accommodations are available upon request during conference registration.
Details on the 2025 conference are coming soon.
