Dechert’s Disability Affinity Group is open to all disabled employees, employees who have family members with disabilities, and allies. The group aims to build awareness about disability inclusion and advocate for an accessible workplace where all professionals feel valued.

To recognize and spread awareness about neurodiversity, the Disability Affinity Group hosted Rosemary Hollinger, a certified ADHD coach. Rosemary shared valuable insights and practical strategies for effectively managing ADHD in the workplace, aimed at enhancing both professional success and personal well-being.

In recognition of the many contributions by workers with disabilities, in 2023 Dechert hosted a special presentation with Angela Winfield, Vice President and Chief Diversity Officer for the Law School Admission Council, who despite facing significant challenges, including blindness and severe depression, has achieved remarkable success. The London Inclusion and Diversity Committee also hosted an insightful conversation on neurodiversity in the workplace.
