HISTORY

Founded in 1975, DRLC houses the nation’s oldest disability rights program. With a strong commitment to intersectionality, DRLC’s programs confront attitudinal and programmatic barriers that maintain discriminatory structures, prevent equal access, and prevent people with disabilities from full inclusion in society.

PROGRAMS

Civil Rights Litigation: DRLC is proud to house the nation’s oldest nonprofit, public interest disability rights program. DRLC’s Civil Rights Litigation program provides holistic legal assistance to people with disabilities and advocates for equality, inclusion, and access. Our cases create systemic changes that benefit the entire disability community.
Cancer Justice: DRLC’s Cancer Justice program answers legal questions for people with cancer—because cancer patients and their families deserve to have clear, accessible, and exceptional legal resources. Our direct services model has served over half a million people through outreach and education.

GALA

Thank you to all who celebrated with us at the 49th Annual FDR Dinner at the Skirball Cultural Center on October 5th!

The unforgettable evening highlighted DRLC’s victories and mission to champion the rights of people with disabilities, set in exquisite old Hollywood glamour with an elegant guest list, jazz band, and dynamic awards program.

We are grateful to our sponsors and community partners for a wonderful evening honoring Lauren Ridloff; Jennifer Kumiyama; Keker, Van Nest & Peters; Salesforce; and Toyota.
