Privacy Policy
Our Commitment to Web Accessibility

Pittsburgh Center for Disability Justice (PCDJ) is sensitive to the inherent power dynamics present between helpers and people who need help. Our strongly held values regarding dignity and self-determination lead us to intentionally choose not to use our clients' and community members' likenesses in our promotional materials. Likewise, we will never ask for testimonials. We believe that asking for these things reinforces the power dynamics we seek to dismantle. If someone feels they cannot say no without risking something, then a request is, in essence, a demand. For these reasons, you will not find photographs of our work or client testimonials on our website. As we resume in-person social activities held in public spaces, you may find photographs of those events over time! Even in social situations, we always want to prioritize the comfort and dignity of our community members so they can show up in these spaces as fully as possible. So any future photo-taking will be considered with intention and, of course, consent. Questions about this policy can be directed to opal@disabledpgh.org.
