  • Building high-performing organizations including people with differing abilities
  • How AI is transforming the way we measure representation in creative
  • Project 2025 and its direct attack on DEI

Upcoming Calls

This month’s BRIDGE Community Call honors Disability Pride Month and this year’s theme “We Belong Here — and We’re Here to Stay.” We’ll explore how true inclusion goes beyond access to agency, leadership, and co-creation. Together, we’ll examine how ableism shows up in our systems and how we can embed accessibility across our organizations in lasting, meaningful ways. THIS IS OUR LAST CALL UNTIL SEPTEMBER. HAPPY SUMMER!
