IDJ would also like to uplift artwork by survivors with disabilities and people with disabilities broadly. The artwork does not need to specifically be about people with disabilities or about violence prevention or survivorship. Publication of artwork may serve 1 of 2 purposes:
- To bring creative awareness to disability justice, violence prevention, and/or survivorship.
