Welcome to Ability Counts Club

Who are we?

We are a student-led club at Merritt College, and we focus on issues related to Disability, Accessibility, and Resilience.

Ability Counts is a disability awareness and advocacy club that welcomes everybody with or without a disability. We meet to develop a plan for helping Merritt students with support and success, promoting equal access and rights for students with and without disabilities, and helping to bring awareness of disabilities to campus, our communities, and beyond.

It can be enlightening for those who want to help advocate for individuals with disabilities or for those who have children or other family members with disabilities to join the Ability Counts Club. Our club goals are to educate others about disability, our rights, responsibilities, and laws while demonstrating our abilities, networking, and having a good time too! This is a very diverse group of students who contributes to advocating for Disability Rights and Accessibility Services.

Come join the Ability Counts student-led club and share your talents.

Your disability does not define you! It helps you to reveal your abilities!
