PROBLEM:
1 billion peoples are disabled worldwide, making disability the biggest monitory in the world. *
Disabled peoples are victims of violence at three times the rate of their non-disabled peers. *
Law enforcement often does not receive proper training on how to interact with disabled people due to lack of funding and time.*Disabled individuals make up a third to half of all people killed by law enforcement officers.**
SOLUTION:
FREE+ CONDENSED TRAINING
Through a series of 4-6 short videos, we’ll produce training to better inform law enforcement on how to best treat disabled people. This will be a three step process:
- AWARENESS + FUNDRAISING: Ideas are lovely, but.. we need money and people to make this happen.
- FILMING + VIDEO PRODUCTION: We’ll work with industry experts, disabled activists and volunteers to produce and film these trainings.
- PROMOTION + DISTRIBUTION: Lights, camera, ACTION! Share the love!!.. and the videos. This is going to be hard work and we’ll need your help to share and discuss these videos.
OUR GOALS:
Collaborate with 10+ disabled advocates to produce video trainings.
Partner with 2-4 local or national organizations to enhance the content and distribution of these videos.
Share training videos with 300+ law enforcement officers.
