At the time UC Access Now released the Demandifesto on the 30th Anniversary of the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act, the UC Board of Regents had not discussed disability/accessibility for TEN YEARS.

UC Access Now was the 1st org we know of that advocated for a systemic approach to dismantling ableism throughout UC - prior to us, ppl were focused mostly on students, only at one campus. UC brass have ignored us as much as they can, even when cherry-picking things to improve from our analysis.

Yesterday, UC President Michael Drake, MD announced that an Office of Disability Rights will be located within a new Systemwide Office of Civil Rights. https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/press-room/uc-president-michael-v-drake-md-opening-remarks-november-15-regents-meeting @disability
