OUR IMPACT

Office of Disability Inclusion

Our initiative to drive inclusion and advancement of people with disabilities globally

 

Advancing Entrepreneurs


To best support entrepreneurs with disabilities, the most up-to-date and innovative research and information is necessary. That’s why we’re proud to collaborate with organizations such as the National Disability Institute (NDI) to help fill the historical gap in research about the community.

 

NEW REPORT: Small Business Ownership by People with Disabilities: Challenges and Opportunities

Entrepreneurs with disabilities are hindered by limited access to affordable startup capital and technical assistance tailored to their unique needs and challenges.

This NDI report supported by JPMorgan Chase explores these challenges in detail and offers recommendations for how we can all help increase their opportunities.

Community Navigator Pilot Program

The National Disability Institute is connecting partners across the disability community, the government and the private sector to deliver an innovative pilot program to uplift entrepreneurs and small business owners with disabilities.

We are proud to be one of two preferred U.S. Small Business Administration lenders for the program, which is currently active in the Greater Washington, D.C. area. Learn more about the program.
