One of the Best Kept Secrets

Hundreds of thousands of citizens of the Commonwealth have disabilities and are struggling for the same civil rights the rest of the population enjoys everyday.

This is no secret to us, yet we are one of the best-kept secrets in the world of people with disabilities—working for their civil rights, dignity, equality, welfare, and freedom from discrimination. The Disability Policy Consortium (DPC) is the only non-profit, statewide, cross-disability organization that actively engages the lawmakers and policy-makers in the Massachusetts government to fight for people with disabilities. 

All of our efforts go into promoting inclusion, independence, and empowerment by guiding policies that ensure programs and services enable people with disabilities to participate in the political, economic, and social mainstream of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
