CONSULTING
Our consultants specialize in supporting media, art, and theatre entities to practice these 3 key components to disability-friendly media:
Develop accessible, sustainable, disability-informed workplace cultures and creative processes for disabled creators (first free tip: we don’t advise making media about disability without involving any disabled people!)
Create content that authentically represents people with disabilities and resists ableist narratives, angles, stereotypes, and language
Ensure accessibility for their audiences across all in-person events and digital platforms
One size does not fit all.
While we believe in the power of these 3 key components used together, we are open to discussing smaller needs or needs outside these parameters with clients. Services are priced on a sliding scale based on the size and type of organization requesting them. We work with organizations on planning and budgeting for long-term, meaningful change. Following leaders in the disability justice movement, we understand accessibility as an ongoing process that can consider a variety of marginalized identities, not simply as a checklist or legal standard.
Testimonials
“Kennedy Healy of Crip Crap facilitated a discussion about Anti-Ableist Media Making for our Unlearning Ableism series, and the presentation she shared was both approachable and substantive. Kennedy did a great job of bringing people into some root questions about ableism and media, and facilitating our conversation. As a facilitator, Kennedy has an inviting and easygoing presence, which seemed to nurture the curiosity of people who joined us! The vibe felt like a really interesting late-night conversation with a friend.”
-Margaret Fink, Director, University of Illinois at Chicago’s Disability Cultural Center
“You held the space with such generosity and calm while offering meaty resources and really thought-provoking questions. It was just what our group needed to take a pause and consider the importance of accessibility within our work. I am looking forward to supporting the Artist Guides in following through on the commitments we all voiced at the end of the session.”
-Grace Needlman, Manager of Youth and Family Programs, Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago
