Disability DEI

Training & Consulting

Providing disability focused training, support, and perspectives to promote and advance disability inclusion. 

Why Disability DEI is Crucial for the Workplace

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, DPC is plays a huge role in 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.

"I really enjoyed how interactive the presentation was, and how the facilitator was inclusive and mindful of people's needs. I really appreciated this session! I learned so much, and while the content was disturbing, it was really powerful and insightful to learn."

"Health Management Associates has partnered with DPC on many projects and webinars to advance equity and justice. DPC's team has strengthened HMA's teams, bringing insights and expertise, and lived experience of disability to our projects. It is a pleasure to work with DPC."

"We were looking for a consultant who had expertise in several key areas, including research, focus group facilitation, and data synthesis. DPC used a team approach, bringing in staff who had the skill sets necessary to ensure that all aspects of this data project were fully explored."

"Health Resources in Action (HRiA) envisions a future of healthy people thriving in equitable and just communities. DPC has been a powerful partner in advancing this vision, informing projects like the MA DPH Community Health Equity Survey (CHES) and the Digital Equity Planning process for the City of Boston. We are grateful for the insights, expertise, guidance, and partnership of DPC and look forward to continuing to advance the policy, systems and environmental changes that we envision."
