Training & Outreach
The Minnesota Disability Law Center (MDLC) provides informational training and other learning opportunities for groups of people with disabilities, family members, attorneys and other groups who support people in the disability community, with an emphasis on outreach to diverse communities.
Due to staff time and resources, the Minnesota Disability Law Center may not be able to fulfill all training requests. We do our best to offer training when we can.
