    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>She
     has left and indelible mark on the world for people with disabilities 
    and all who benefit from accessible features.  She has been a lifelong 
    advocate for herself and others, beginning with her own educational 
    advocacy and her successful challenge in becoming a licensed teacher who
     uses a wheelchair and continuing to the present day. Her experience 
    with Camp Jened and the San Francisco 504 protests has received broad 
    attention with the recent documentary <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRrIs22plz0" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Crip Camp</a>.

    <div>Her
     influence is truly global, national and local - many of the 
    professional staff within UMBC's Accessibility and Disability Services 
    have seen her in action through Association for Higher Ed and Disability
     (AHEAD) and similar  professional development events. Her memory is a 
    global blessing.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>While she 
    will be dearly missed, as a tribute to her legacy, she would want campus
     members to co-create a disability-friendly community, and to reach out 
    to UMBC Disability resources for information and support:</div>

<Title>Rest in Power Judy Heumann, Disability Rights Activist</Title>

    <div>Judith "Judy" Heumann - widely regarded as the "mother" of the disability rights movement passed away in DC on March 4, 2023.  <a href="https://judithheumann.com/the-world-mourns-the-passing-of-judy-heumann-disability-rights-activist/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">A summary of her life and essential work is available on her website here</a>.</div>

    <div><br></div>
    <div>She has left an indelible mark on the world for people with disabilities and all who benefit from accessible features.  She has been a lifelong advocate for herself and others, beginning with her own educational advocacy and her successful challenge in becoming a licensed teacher who uses a wheelchair and continuing to the present day. Her experience with Camp Jened and the San Francisco 504 protests has received broad attention with the recent documentary <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRrIs22plz0" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Crip Camp</a>. (NB: there is intersection with<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hw1ATXKfr9g" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"> Dr. Sami Schalk's recent 504 UMBC talk</a>)</div>

    <div>Her influence is truly global, national and local - many of the professional staff within UMBC's Accessibility and Disability Services have seen her in action through Association for Higher Ed and Disability (AHEAD) and similar  professional development events. Her memory is a global blessing.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>While she will be dearly missed, as a tribute to her legacy, she would want campus members to co-create a disability-friendly community, and to reach out to UMBC Disability resources for information and support:</div>
