Saturday, 22nd August 2015, 3-6pm – Diversability LA is on a mission to rebrand the word disability through its disability awareness launch party in LA. Whether it be physical or mental, Diversability is a global group comprising of mostly millennial young professionals who want to breathe new life into disability awareness. Using modern outlets such as social media and public event mixers, Diversability aims to challenge influencers around the globe to rethink the meaning of diversity.

The launch event theme will be “Power,” as speakers, founders, and artists will spark conversations about the power of community, the power of voice, the power of technology, and the power of education. The launch event will include appearances by figures such as The Mighty team, Allie Burke (best-selling author), and Nick Lum (co-founder BeeLine Reader).
