Class of 2026 Black Disabled Liberation Project

Seeded by a $1 million investment from the Black-Led Movement Fund (BLMF), in partnership with the Disability Inclusion Fund, Julia Beatty and Sandy Ho of Borealis Philanthropy, launched The Black Disabled Liberation Project, a co-funding initiative to resource at the overlapping gap and intersections of disability and Blackness.

As part of the project, LeaderSpring Center was brought in as a consultant to co-design and facilitate a leadership cohort for grantee partners. Throughout the cohort, leaders are invited to practice being in deep relationship with one another to help build systems of support that go beyond the program and help sustain the vital work of the different organizations.
