The Cañada College Library Disability Justice Research Guide is created and hosted with the intent to provide resources that will broaden the scope of understanding and enable students, faculty, and community members to educate themselves on contemporary struggles for disability rights.
Disability justice is an interdisciplinary topic; it reaches across areas including education policy, health access and clinical topics, laws and legislation, social justice/activism and more.
This research guide is a work in progress and will continue to be updated as new materials and information become available.
