Keynote Speaker: Dr. Abu Yilla
We are honored to have Dr. Yilla present "Improving accessibility through physical activity. A personal journey through the evolving paradigm of disability accessibility."
Dr. Yilla received his master’s and doctorate degrees from the Texas Woman’s University, and two bachelor’s degrees from the University of Nottingham, England and the University of Texas at Arlington. He is a clinical assistant professor at the University of Texas at Arlington and has been at the institution since the fall of 1996. Dr Yilla instructs undergraduate teacher preparation classes. His research focus and publications are on the explication of the lives of individuals with disabilities, elite disability sport, and in particular, wheelchair basketball. He also serves on a number of boards and advisory councils.
