The Disability and Immigration Taskforce of Illinois (DITI) strives to:

  • Empower and support immigrants, refugees, and/or asylees with disabilities and their families to access culturally and linguistically appropriate services
  • Create systems change through advocacy, education, training, and sharing resources that are inclusive of all communities

DITI factsheets for immigrants with disabilities can be found on the left side of the page under the ‘Resource’ section.


Get Involved with DITI

Join the Taskforce by attending the DITI monthly meeting via Zoom.

Meetings are the 3rd Monday of the month from 10am to 11am. Contact the Immigration and Latinx Community Organizer for details.

DITI was established by Chicago area disability and immigration advocates in the fall of 2019, with the help of national partners and the Ford Foundation.
