Disability Equality Index (DEI) Updates Presented by Disability:IN 2018

DEI Overview The DEI is a collaborative partnership between the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) www.aapd.com and Disability:IN. It is an annual benchmarking tool for disability inclusion within Am Law 200 and Fortune 1000 companies. The DEI educates the business community on disability inclusion best policies and practices. The DEI also guides people with disabilities in choosing businesses that are authentically committed to providing a supportive work environment.
