Driving Change
Policy Advocacy
Shaping federal policy to expand opportunity, economic mobility, and full participation for people with disabilities.
Making Policy Reflect Real Lives
People with disabilities make up over 70 million Americans, but government policy hasn’t kept up with changing needs. Outdated laws, systemic bias, lack of knowledge, and inaccessible infrastructure continue to limit opportunity.
Through the Disability Policy Roundtable, a coalition we co-convened with the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD), we work with national partners to advance cross-sector, bipartisan solutions that respond to these inequities and create the context and infrastructure where people with disabilities can excel.
We ensure that the disability community’s voices, priorities, and lived experiences help shape the laws that impact our lives, from competitive employment reforms to digital accessibility.
