ECNV’s Disability Justice Mindful Design Lab, facilitated by Circles for Conscious Change, is an 8-month incubator for social change solutions designed by and for people with disabilities in Northern Virginia. The Mindful Design Lab core curriculum is an experiential program involving a blend of personal reflection, mindfulness-based leadership skills, and social entrepreneurship skills.

The 2023 inaugural program supports the work of three grassroots Agents of Change venture teams. Each team has examined an issue of disability justice at the root level and designed an intervention from concept through a social venture plan, informed by their lived experiences and deep connections with stakeholders and allies. With generous support from the Ford Foundation, each Agents of Change team is eligible for seed funding, through a new ECNV Disability Justice Venture Fund that has been informed and designed by the Agents of Change themselves.

Join us to learn about and celebrate their unique solutions and future visions. 

Please RSVP on our Online Registration Form.
