Disability Justice and International Students
In this session, we’ll talk about policies and practices that create barriers for international students with disabilities as well as effective classroom interventions. Approximately 7% of international students studying in the United States report having used disability resources. However, because of cultural expectations, stigma, and bureaucratic hurdles caused by visa regulations, the need to translate documents, and the accommodations process itself, the actual number of international students who might qualify for educational accommodations is unknown.
