We had our second year of Heumann-Armstrong Awards this year and we\u2019d like to thank everyone who took the time to share their stories with us. Even though we weren\u2019t able to award everyone, we are excited to see the work you will all do in the future of education. The Coelho Center and Equal Opportunties for Students would like to thank Esquire Bank and the American Association of People with Disabilities, for their financial support for this cycle of Heumann-Armstrong Awards. We are now proud to announce our six winners of the 2022 Heumann-Armstrong award, each of which will receive $1000 as well as have a video interview published, and illustrated by\u00a0Access Gallery<\/a>.
