Hollywood has a history of hiring disabled creatives as consultants, where they have less creative control and lower pay, instead of as writers, directors, and producers — the jobs they're trained for. This fund offers tools to help disabled writers, actors and academics, who currently work as disability consultants, negotiate for the positions they actually want. To do this, the fund buys back consultants time — at 150% of received consulting offers — allowing them to negotiate for a better position or advance their creative careers.
