Your What’s Next gift seeds a compensation fund to anchor our commitment to provide meaningful and equitable pay for all employees.

We’ve taken steps over the last decade to create meaningful pay for meaningful work and continue our growth as a movement for justice. The need for the fund ultimately comes from a commitment to core members, that they receive the best care and quality assistants to provide that care and community.

With the expert care and genuine friendship of assistants, core members are better equipped to meaningfully participate in society. Meaningful compensation through What’s Next will affirm the value of people with disabilities in our world.

$500K for equitable assistant compensation

You are essential to a more gentle, human world.

We believe it’s possible to shape a world that welcomes every person as a fully valued and meaningfully contributing member of society. But it’s only possible with your partnership.

Will you join us for What’s Next?
