The University of Iowa will host the 2023 Iowa Regents Institutions Disability Awareness Summit on Thursday, October 26, 2023, at the University Capitol Centre in Iowa City.

The Summit is hosted on a rotating basis by the University of Iowa, the University of Northern Iowa, and Iowa State University. Each institution plans a day of programming to raise awareness of issues related to disability and higher education at Iowa Regents Institutions campuses and elsewhere throughout the state.

This year marks the 13th annual Summit, featuring sessions on emotional support animals, compassion fatigue, accessible event planning, transitional educational programs for students with intellectual, cognitive, and learning disabilities, and more. The event will be hosted by the University of Iowa's Division of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, with support from the Office of Institutional Equity, Student Disability Services, Faculty and Staff Disability Services, Leave and Disability Administration, Facilities Management, and Information Technology Services.
