How can family philanthropies ensure their internal operations and grantmaking practices are disability-inclusive?
One in four US adults—61 million people—have some type of disability, but few people working in philanthropy self-identify as disabled. There is a growing recognition across the philanthropic sector that to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion, it must approach its work through a disability lens. For funders, there are opportunities throughout their work to shift internal operations toward more equitable and values-aligned practices. In this interactive session, we focus on embedding disability and
inclusion in operations and learn best practices to embed disability inclusion in their internal practices,
processes, and policies.
