Media Access Awards at the Beverly Hills HiltonHeld Nov 1 at the Beverly Hills Hotel, the Media Access Awards Presented by Easterseals pay tribute to entertainment industry professionals who tirelessly advance public awareness, inclusion and accessibility for people with disabilities, as well as call out for positive and accurate depictions of characters with disabilities in film and television. One-in-four Americans (25%) live with a disability, making it today’s largest minority population. But just 1.7% of TV and 2.7% of film roles feature a character with a disability and over 95% of those roles go to actors without a disability.
