Our Ongoing Commitment

 

PUKC and FCP are committed to making our events as accessible as possible, given the limited time and resources we have. While we change and grow as an organization, we pledge to keep accessibility at the forefront of everything we do. If you want to come to our event, but need additional accessibility information or have an accommodation request, we encourage you to reach out!

Please be sure to submit Accommodations Requests via our form at least seven (7) days BEFORE the event you are planning on attending. We will do our best to respond promptly and let you know if we can grant your request. If we are unable to meet a particular request, due to time or budget constraints, we are open to collaborating on a solution that works for all parties involved.
