E-Mentoring Designers with Disabilities
Introduction to E-Mentoring
Access to Design Professions, a project of the Institute for Human Centered Design, has mentorships between design professionals and students or entry-level designers with disabilities who are interested in design. This is an electronic mentor-ship that uses the Internet for the majority of contact. Ultimately, the goal of E-Mentoring is the recruitment and support of individuals with disabilities in design professions in order to improve design for all people. To participate, please contact Ruth Lusher (rlusher@HumanCenteredDesign.org).
