Three in ten Indigenous people are living with a disability in the United States. However, funding for disability rights and justice represented only one cent of every $10 in foundation grants awarded in 2019, and only 0.46% of grant dollars awarded by U.S. foundations in 2016 explicitly benefited Native Americans. Philanthropy must take action to consistently and significantly fund inclusion, rights, and justice led by disabled Indigenous communities.

In this webinar, disabled Indigenous leaders will share their knowledge and lived experiences at the intersection of disability justice and Indigenous self-determination. Learn how philanthropy can follow the leadership of disabled Indigenous people in order to support justice for Indigenous communities, people with disabilities, and everyone who exists at the intersection.

CART and ASL interpretation will be provided. If you require another accommodation to fully participate in the webinar, please note it in your registration, or contact us at communications@disabilityphilanthropy.org. This free webinar is presented by the Disability & Philanthropy Forum, in partnership with Native Americans in Philanthropy.
