One in four U.S. adults (61 million Americans) and an estimated one billion individuals worldwide experience a disability that impacts major life activities; however, disability is often left out of diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. As DEI efforts are undertaken, how can we ensure disability is included? Join us for this webinar and learn why accessible DEI matters.   

Learning Objectives: 

  • Understand why a disability lens matters in philanthropy.  
  • Reiterate a few ways you can begin to shift your foundation’s mindset toward initiatives in inclusivity.  
  • Share 2-3 examples of current philanthropic efforts that include disability in their DEI journey.  

Speakers:

  • Ryan Easterly, Executive Director, WITH Foundation
  • Jessie Galloway, Program Officer, Ability Central Philanthropy 
How to Register/RSVP: 

Eligibility: This program is open to foundation donors, trustees, and staff; individual donors; donor advised fund holders; and members of giving circles.
