JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion) Specialist, Institute on Disabilities, Temple University, Philadelphia, PA
Posted: Thursday, May 25, 2023The position is at the Institute on Disabilities at Temple University -- Pennsylvania's University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities Education, Research, and Service (UCEDD). UCEDDs provide university and community training, innovative services and supports, technical assistance, research, and dissemination to support people with disabilities in their pursuit of independence, productivity, community inclusion, and overall quality of life.
The Institute on Disabilities has a long history of applying a social justice lens to its projects and programs. In response to the growing inequity in health and well-being of people with disabilities, particularly those living at the intersection of other marginalized identities, the Institute on Disabilities is recruiting a Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) Specialist to deepen our commitment to social equity and inclusion.
Reporting to the Director of Research and Evaluation at the Institute on Disabilities, the Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Specialist will be responsible for developing and implementing a JEDI plan for the Institute on Disabilities and all of its projects.
