AAPD Gala Sold Out

AAPD Gala Sold Out in Record Time

The AAPD Gala sold out in record time this year.  This news came as AAPD received final confirmation that Secretary of Education, Arne Duncan, will be presenting this year's Image Award after delivering his message around efforts to improve special education policy and address the issue of bullying in schools.  The 2011 Image Award will be accepted in person by Lauren Potter who plays the character Becki Jackson on the Fox Television Series 'Glee.'  Lauren has recently begun speaking out on the issue of disability bullying in schools.  For more on her advocacy check out her YouTube Video (uncaptioned). This event promises to be a glamorous celebration of disability unity and strength.
