Today, as part of the National Disability Leadership Alliance, NDY is proud to share the first images from The Disability Collection, a dedicated collection of images that authentically portray people with disabilities in everyday life.
The Disability Collection is the first-of-its-kind partnership between disability leaders and major media companies to change representation of disability in the media. We are partnering with Oath and Getty Images to empower the media industry with better images that more accurately represent our communities. The project has already raised awareness in the industry and recently won a Shorty Social Good Award which honors leading social impact initiatives.
We are just getting started, and invite you to join us in growing the collection! Here’s how:
- Submit photographs to be considered for to the collection
- Sign up to be a model in a photo shoot or host a shoot at your organization’s location
- Share your feedback on how you’d like to see disability represented using #thedisabilitycollection on social media
