ABLE provides encouragement

“We all have things that challenge us. The point is we’re all college students and really not that different from each other.”

-Erin Breedlove, ABLE president

The Registered Student Organization ABLE kicks off Disability Awareness Month by raising awareness across campus of students with disabilities at GCSU.

ABLE aims to promote the abilities of disabled students and encourage the student body to look past the physical differences. ABLE is working toward awareness and acceptance of disabilities on and around campus. Along with Disability Awareness Month, ABLE hosts small projects to help out disabled students.

The last week in October is ‘No Boundaries Week,’ in which GCSU will play host to a number of organizations for the disabled to provide games and activities such as modified volleyball and dodgeball.

Oct. 8, 6 p.m. in Peabody Auditorium
