Important Notes:

Participate in as much of this Summit as you'd like; you can attend the panels that work for your schedule and access needs!
As an alternative to being in-person, you can participate in any and all of the panel discussions of the Summit virtually through Zoom, so please specify that when you register.

Transportation:

We encourage you to take public transit, bike, walk, rideshare, or use paratransit.

Public Transit:
- VTA bus lines 61 and 25 both stop one block away from the Summit, at Bascom Ave and Renova Dr.
- VTA bus lines 23 and Rapid 523 both stop at Bascom and San Carlos St, 0.6 miles from the Summit, a 12-minute walk.
- VTA's Green light rail line stop at Fruitvale is 1.1 miles from the Summit, a 23-minute walk on city streets and through campus.
Parking:
- Parking on campus may be a flat $3. Let Michele Mashburn know if you'd like to be reimbursed for your parking because of need.
- See a detailed map of parking options here, including options closest to the Summit labeled as "A" and "B."
- There are disabled parking spaces with ramps closest to the Summit off Bascom Avenue and Moorpark Avenue, labeled as "A" and "Staff Parking" on the map.
- There is also 2-hour, free street parking right next to the Summit on Moorpark Ave, though it is a one-way street, so you'd want to enter Moorpark from Bascom to find these parking spots.

From 9:30 am to 3:45 pm, there will be a quiet room available and clearly marked for folks who want it close to the main room
ASL Interpretation will be available from 10 am to the end of the Summit
