APAP recognizes the importance of leading with a people-first, relationship-based approach in our practice and in our spaces. This includes a commitment to disability, universal access, and inclusion. We are committed to creating spaces where people are able to exist as their full selves and are able to successfully engage in all of our programs, activities, and gatherings. Building on the accessibility features and services offered in 2024, here's what APAP will provide for the APAP|NYC 2025 conference:   

  • On-site accessibility team located near registration, available during all conference hours   
  • Accessible signage throughout the conference   
  • Fully accessible on-site spaces for wheelchair users and others with mobility needs, including reserved seating
  • Access to water in every on-site room
  • Stimulus-free quiet spaces, open and available each day from 9:00 a.m. until midnight for all attendees
  • Gender-inclusive, chair-accessible, and companion restrooms
  • Open captioning for all primary sessions, including mobile captioning options on your personal devices  
  • ASL for primary sessions, and ASL for smaller rooms, affinity spaces, and concourse level spaces, available on request
  • Lactation & nursing pods   
  • Dedicated accessibility team during the hours that the EXPO Commons is open
  • Accessibility coordination with producers for off-site showcases   
  • Individualized assistance and coordination upon request

If you are a showcase producer, please refer to the Accessibility Checklist for APAP|NYC Showcase Producers to create an inclusive experience for both audiences and performers.

We are in the process of evolving and growing in the accessibility and inclusion space and continue to solicit feedback from the APAP community. We are making informed, actionable, and incremental changes that we’ll share regularly.
