Did you know that this summit was started back in 2016 as a daylong in-person event with about 100 attendees, and it was organized and run by 3 people?! The first theme was "Activism and Advocacy in the Academy".

The topic is "Creating Sustainable Global Cross-Disability Communities".

"We are learning that the term 'ally' takes up space. 'Advocates' take up risks. So, how can we be advocates in the larger work - that is, to take a risk." - Monét Harbison, on allyship in the school-to-prison nexus.
