Events at 350 Alabama #9 are partially accessible and we can work with you to make accommodations if you reach out to us at leadership@dsasf.org.

The first floor can be accessed without using stairs with help: knock, ring the doorbell, or contact a member inside to go through the courtyard and open the front door for you. The other floors require stairs for access — if you’d like to request that a particular meeting happen on the first floor so that you can access it this way, email leadership@dsasf.org.
