Historic Resources

Western Pennsylvania is home to a significant amount of disability history, with a strong record of advocacy to ensure appropriate policies and services. The Consortium is building an inventory of collections that document this history. We are committed to maintaining a searchable resource for educators, museum professionals, scholars and the public.

Please contact the Consortium or complete our survey (link opens in a new window) if you are aware of collections and repositories that are not represented here.
