How We Work
Our approach is inspired by the expertise of our team and the organization’s unique position as a nonprofit embedded in multiple communities. Learn more about what’s fueling our strategies and success as we tackle Hollywood’s disability representation gap.
Organizational Culture
Marisa Torelli-Pedevska and Richie Siegel on how their experiences shaped the nonprofit’s dedication to tackling Hollywood’s disability representation and hiring challenges: "Sometimes people don't realize how personal it is."
Advocacy
The public affairs and communications team unpacks an evolving and expanding strategy around the nonprofit’s billboard, social media and open letter campaigns for Greenlight Disability, Hire Disabled Writers, and Disability is Diversity.
Why We Work
We are a nonprofit dedicated to making Hollywood a disability-forward industry, something we are able to achieve with the support of our diverse team and board of directors, who ensure our programs reflect the broader representation and inclusiveness of the disability community.
Narrative Change
We invest in disabled storytellers so they can take back agency over their own stories, and use them to destigmatize disability.
Accessibility & Social Justice
We work to level the playing field in Hollywood to address higher financial, employment and access barriers disabled people face.
Workforce Development
We strive for disabled creatives at every intersection to have leadership opportunities and to build wealth.
