Disabled creators are massively underrepresented in first-look and overall deals in Hollywood. Visit HireDisabledWriters.com to help us increase the hiring of disabled creatives and close the disability representation gap on- and off-screen.
Check out our Bill of Rights for disabled creatives asked to do disability consulting, which outlines equitable standards for payment, engagement, timeline, legal negotiation, and more. Read the Bill of Rights at HireDisabledWriters.com
Disabled writers are one of the most underrepresented groups in entertainment, and the majority of films and tv shows with disabled characters remain created, written, directed, and produced by people who are not disabled—a reality that has gone relatively unchanged for decades.
We're proud to support disabled creatives through the Hire Disabled Writers initiative from @inevitablefdn. Join us in changing the landscape of storytelling and learn more at HireDisabledWriters.com
Our open letter to Hollywood, published in @THR and signed by industry leaders including @LaurenRidloff @MarleeMatlin @sianheder & @mexopolis urges the entertainment industry to Hire Disabled Writers, Not Just a Disability Consultant. Read more at HireDisabledWriters.com
