Our focus is to ensure people feel welcome and included around disability, and to create a sense of community. These two new interpreters will be an important resource for student organizations, faculty, and staff, to assure that there is no disability-related barrier to participation.
Last year, UDR provided about 800 consultations to students, staff, faculty, and researchers on topics including reasonable accommodations, resources for events, accessibility, effective communication, service animals, and emotional support.
UDR introduced Aira, offering free visual interpreting for blind and low-vision individuals. Students can access Aira's new beta feature, Access AI, for AI-generated image descriptions validated by a human interpreter.
