David Lepofsky is a visiting professor at the Osgoode Hall Law School and an adjunct member of the University of Toronto Faculty of Law. He holds volunteer leadership roles in the disability community.

In his plenary at the Second Pan-Canadian Conference on Universal Design for Learning at UPEI, he will focus on how to effectively advocate for the adoption and implementation of UDL. David Lepofsky led the decade-long campaign to win the 2005 enactment of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, and now leads the campaign for its effective implementation and enforcement. As chair of the TDSB SEAC, he is leading a top-to-bottom review of the delivery of special education in Canada’s largest school board. Following his plenary, David will lead a workshop to continue conversation with conference participants. In this workshop, David will conduct an interactive discussion with attendees on how to get UDL effectively embedded at your school board, college, university or by your government.
