About Christy Harrison
As the Sr. Director of Chapter Engagement at The Ability Experience, I bring over six years of experience in building and maintaining relationships with student leaders to achieve mission-driven goals in fundraising, volunteerism, and awareness.My passion is to develop and implement effective programs that inspire and empower students to grow as leaders and advocates for people with disabilities. Through my work, I have increased our fundraising efforts by an average of 38% year over year, developed disability awareness programming for undergraduate members, and led the training and professional development of staff and volunteers. I believe that through shared experiences, we can promote and raise awareness that disability does not mean inability.
