We face a triple crisis

People across the country face compounding challenges that demand urgent, coordinated action from our communities.

βš•οΈ

Health Inequity

Millions lack access to adequate healthcare, especially people with disabilities and low-income families living in underserved communities.

🏘️

Housing Insecurity

Rising costs and systemic barriers push vulnerable populations out of safe, accessible housing β€” threatening stability and dignity.

🀝

Social Isolation

Disconnection and despair weaken civic life. People feel unheard, unseen, and left behind by institutions that should serve them.

About Us

Building power for those left behind

DAPH builds the power of people with disabilities and under-resourced communities in urban, rural, and suburban areas to win change through issue fights and elections. We are a coalition of grassroots organizers united in the work of building a bigger "we."

Since our founding, we have won material improvements for millions β€” including expanded healthcare access, accessible housing protections, and stronger community mental health programs.
