The work of this Coalition is funded by the NoVo Foundation and led through a partnership between the Vera Institute of Justice and the National Resource Center on Domestic Violence (NRCDV). The first episode of Policy & Advocacy in Action features Renee Lopez, a Coalition member and disability rights activist. She speaks about the importance of centering the voices of people of color with disabilities in the work for social justice and collective liberation.
