The University of Saint Joseph (USJ) community came together recently to celebrate the unveiling of campus-wide accessibility improvements.  

Funded by a $400,000 state grant, the multiple improvements include everything from accessible doors to ADA complaint ramps throughout USJ’s West Hartford campus on Asylum Avenue.
