Training and Consulting at Disability Policy Consortium
Providing disability focused training, support, and perspectives to promote and advance disability inclusion.
Despite being a one of United States’ largest and most disenfranchised minority populations, the perspectives and needs of disabled people are often overlooked or excluded. But true Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion cannot be achieved without incorporating our crucial viewpoints. Led by disabled voices, we offer training, consulting, and technical assistance to bring a disability lens to workplaces, DEI initiatives, projects, and services from healthcare, to housing, to arts and culture programming.
Located in Downtown Boston, Disability Policy Consortium is a crucial part of the disability community with a long history of grassroots advocacy, community-based research, and policy innovation. Offering training and consulting services has been a long-time goal and we are pleased to launch this initiative.
