LOS ANGELES - Aug 12, 2016 - Twenty-year-old undergrad Leslie Salmon (now Leslie Salmon-Zhu) was considering a career in special education when she stepped up to the AbilityFirst outreach booth at a California State University Northridge job fair in the mid-1970s. Little did she know that her decision to apply for a summer job as an Arts & Crafts Specialist at Camp Paivika would change the course of her life, leading to a career in rehabilitation counseling and a stint in then-Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley’s office, working specifically for the rights of people with disabilities.
