The Media Access Awards is the world’s top awards ceremony honoring people in the film and television industries who are advancing the accurate portrayals and employment of people with disabilities.
This annual virtual show, done in partnership with Easterseals Disability Services, honors entertainment industry professionals who have advanced disability-related narrative and employment in fields of writing, producing, casting, performance, and directing.
Hollywood writer/producer Deborah Calla (who is part of the Equal Voice | Equal Future Editorial Board) and writer Allen Rucker have been working together since 2010 to continue the annual non-televised awards event that was originally created in 1979 by Norman Lear, Fern Field, and Norman G. Brooks.
