Disability Justice: An Audit Tool

Written by Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha and envisioned with Stacey Park Milbern, “Disability Justice: An Audit Tool” is aimed at helping Black, Indigenous and POC-led organizations (that are not primarily focused around disability) examine where they’re at in practicing disability justice, and where they want to learn and grow. It includes questions for self-assessment, links to access tools, organizational stories and more.

This tool provides Black, Indigenous, and POC-led organizations with resources to assess and grow their disability justice practices.Tech Literacy & Accessibility: Created by Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha and Stacey Park Milbern, this audit tool empowers Black, Indigenous, and POC-led organisations to assess their disability justice practices. By offering self-assessment questions and resources, it supports tech literacy in disability justice, moving organizations beyond compliance to examine deeper commitments to justice. Reducing Harm in New Media: The audit tool encourages organizations to build nuanced, culturally specific practices that respond authentically to the needs of disabled people of colour, reducing harm by addressing ableism and exclusion within organizational frameworks.Data & Knowledge Stewardship: By documenting insights and organisational stories, the tool preserves diverse experiences of disability justice and serves as a repository for growing and assessing disability-responsive practices in BIPOC-led spaces.
