2024 AAPD National Community Event

Please join us for the 2024 AAPD National Community Event! The AAPD National Community Event will be held virtually on Tuesday, April 23 at 6:30pm ET.

Tickets for this event are free and open to everyone.

The 2024 AAPD National Community Event is a virtual gathering for the disability community to come together with business and government leadership to celebrate progress made to expand disability rights and inclusion. This event was previously known as the AAPD Leadership Awards Gala.

The National Community Event provides an opportunity for the disability community to join AAPD and our partners, supporters, colleagues, and friends as we celebrate recent community wins, honor disabled leaders and partners doing great work, and affirm our collective continued support for disability equity, access, and inclusion.

Open captioning, ASL, and audio description will be provided. The streaming links will be provided closer to the event date.
