Narrative

The Disability Policy Consortium (DPC) is an organization of disability rights activists who share a common goal of equal opportunity for all individuals with and without disabilities. DPC is committed to fostering understanding and support through education and advocacy for each person's quality of life, including the ability to live independently in whatever community one may choose. DPC's mission is to promote inclusion, independence, and empowerment by guiding statewide development of policies that ensure that programs and services enable people with disabilities to participate in the political, economic, and social mainstream of the Commonwealth. DPC provides a vital link for information to consumers, agencies, organizations, and legislators.
