ReachOut USA is a program that focuses on the crossroads of disability and gay, lesbian, bi and trans issues, to influence the disability community to be more responsive to gay, lesbian, bi and trans individuals, while also influencing those individuals and organizations to be more accountable to people who have disabilities.

The presentation will be open to the public, as well as all service providers. Space is limited, but you can call disAbility Southwest Washington at 360-694-6790 to reserve a seat.
