Center for Disability Justice Research: Health Equity, Education, and Creativity (CDJR)

The Center for Disability Justice Research: Health Equity, Education, and Creativity (CDJR) is a multi-disciplinary hub for faculty, staff, students, and community members working to advance disability justice at Cal State East Bay and in the broader community. The mission of our collective network is to promote equity through radically inclusive teaching, scholarship, and advocacy. We recognize the intersection of disability and other marginalized identities as well as the disparities these interlocking identities create within the lived disability experience. Together we engage in scholarly and creative activities that will foster dialogue around and reduce the disparities in access to optimal health, quality healthcare, and inclusive higher education for all disabled persons.
