Our Commitment to Accessibility

The Stanford Alumni Association is committed to making our programs and services available to all of our alumni and students, regardless of sensory, motor, cognitive or other disability.

Examples of this ongoing effort include, to the extent possible, assistive technologies (such as assisted-listening devices), special transportation options for those with limited mobility at on-campus events (such as dedicated golf carts and accessible parking), planning consideration (such as ADA-compliant venue selection when available) and website improvements.

Please let us know of any barriers you encounter to full participation in any Stanford Alumni Association offering.
