The secret behind RAMPD's growth? Our small but mighty team all proudly identify as a disabled or neurodivergent. We work diligently to support our membership, seek out career opportunities for our #Disability community & inclusion opportunities for the #Music Industry.

Organizations for people with disabilities should be run or co-run by people with disabilities at the top-most positions of decision making, otherwise you run the risk of perpetuating inspiration exploitation and non Disability Culture-centered rhetoric, unawares. #disability
