Services for Alumni Visitors with Special Needs

The AYA strives to make its alumni programs as accessible as possible to all alumni. Because individual needs vary and because we wish to respect personal preferences, AYA staff work with alumni on a case-by-case basis to identify the ways in which we can assist with those needs and accommodate them whenever and wherever possible.
