Symposium Access Guide and Policy Information 

We have endeavored to offer as much information as possible in the Access Guide to allow for you, and any of your invited guests, to make informed choices and plan your attendance. To support the accessibility of the symposium, we have created fragrance policies, a Covid-19 and masking policy, and an allergy protocol. You can find these statements below. Please take a few moments to review them.

This event is a relaxed event, meaning all ways of being and moving (moving around the room, bringing a comfort item, taking breaks) are welcome here. Chernoff Room 211 and the Indigenous Gathering Space are available for the duration of the event as dedicated quiet spaces. There are also many beautiful natural and quiet settings on campus and close by including Lake Ontario. If you are joining online, we encourage you to get comfortable - turn your camera on or off, move around, take breaks, bring comfort items or comfort food with you or other that makes you feel at home.

We worked hard to find ASL interpreters for this event; however, we were only able to secure on-line interpreters for Day 2 keynotes. We will be working after the event to expand accessibility, including adding ASL interpretation and audio description to videos, writing plain language versions and more. Thank you in advance for your understanding.
