Santa Ana College’s Student Equity and Achievement Program (SEAP) will host the Learning Rights Law Center, Mendez vs. Board of Education Community Discussion. The mission of the Learning Rights Law Center is to focus on education equity, in particular on behalf of students who have been denied equal access to a public education based on disability or discrimination.

An interpreter and headsets for those who would like to follow along in Spanish will be available.
