Disability rights are civil rights, and now more than ever, public entities, such as the University of Rhode Island, must make efforts to meet compliance requirements that lead to greater access to programs, services, and activities.Participants are invited to submit questions in advance by emailing: equalopportunity-group@uri.edu.EVENT INFORMATIONRegistration Link: https://rhody.webex.com/weblink/register/rac4bb460607c9aa6d639902cba650b81Date: Monday, October 6, 2025, 12PM-1PMFormat: Lunch-and-Learn (Webex)Guest Speakers: -Jake Avakian, Business Analyst, Office of Equal Opportunity -Kara Larsen, Assistant Vice President, Enterprise Risk Management -Markeisha J.
