Supporting people with invisible disabilities through education, self-advocacy, technology, partnerships, and community.
Accessibility Innovation Hub
Where accessibility, technology, and community impact meet
The Accessibility Innovation Hub is IPC's framework for researching, building, and scaling digital tools that reduce barriers for people with invisible disabilities and the educators, caregivers, and volunteers who walk alongside them.
Innovation principles
Accessibility-first design
Every tool is built to meet or exceed WCAG 2.2 AA, with plain language, low cognitive load, and accommodations woven into the experience — not bolted on.
Co-designed with lived experience
People with invisible disabilities, caregivers, educators, and volunteers help shape what we build, what we measure, and what we retire.
Evidence-informed frameworks
PBIS, MTSS, UDL, IDEA, ADA, and Section 504 guide our content so tools are credible for schools, workplaces, healthcare, and community settings.
Digital-first nonprofit model
Lightweight, web-based tools let IPC reach people across regions without the overhead of physical infrastructure — extending impact for every dollar raised.
From prototype to scale
Every IPC tool moves through a clear lifecycle so that innovation is grounded in lived experience, accessibility, and measurable impact.
Prototype
Early concepts are built and tested for usability and accessibility with a small group of advisors and end users.
Pilot
Tools are used with volunteers, caregivers, educators, and individuals to gather structured feedback and outcome data.
Scale
Validated tools are positioned for broader implementation, partnerships, and grant-funded expansion.
