Our vision is to create a world in which disability – physical, emotional, developmental, intellectual, psychosocial, sensory, visible, and invisible – is reflexively brought into every major social and political conversation, and that people with disabilities are visible in every social circle and every part of life. It is our hope that, through the work of this shared interest group, we can set the gold standard for disability inclusion and create a model to be emulated in organizations, institutions, legislative bodies, and communities, the world over.

HADA will:

• Unite Harvard alumni with disabilities and allies in a worldwide network characterized by empowerment and enablement.

• Explore intersections of disability and social disciplines.

• Devise policy, technological, design, and sociocultural interventions to address challenges experienced by people with disabilities in these areas.

• Elevate disability as an affinity, advocacy, and accessibility issue.
