comprehensive annual benchmarking tool allowing America’s leading
corporations to self-report their disability policies and
practices. This evolving index objectively scores each corporation

DEI was developed by the two national leaders in consultation with
the appointed DEI Advisory Committee, a diverse and voluntary group
of experts in business, policy, and disability advocacy.
