About Jolie’s
Justice is not abstract. It is access in action.
We help people move from feeling overwhelmed by systems to being informed, prepared, represented, and ready to lead change.
OurMission
Jolie’s Advocacy Workshop advances social justice and disability equity by helping individuals, families, schools, nonprofits, and community leaders turn rights into access, concerns into coordinated action, and lived experience into lasting change.
We advocate beside people as they navigate education, disability, and community systems. Through representation, strategic planning, professional learning, and capacity building, we help clients understand their options, communicate their priorities, and enter decision making spaces with confidence.
Our work is grounded in the belief that disability rights are civil rights, that social justice must be intersectional, and that every person deserves meaningful participation in the decisions that shape their life.
Leadership in action
A voice shaped by advocacy, education, and service.
Chief Executive Officer Tabia Jolie brings lived experience, academic preparation, and community leadership to every part of Jolie’s Advocacy Workshop. Her work reflects the belief that young people and disabled people belong in the rooms where decisions are made.
