مستخلص: Despite over two decades of work looking at ways to increase diversity among science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) faculty, little has been done to increase the representation of faculty with disabilities. Moreover, despite recent attention to increasing the participation of students with disabilities in STEM education, this work has rarely been extended to include faculty with disabilities. This paper describes efforts taken by AccessADVANCE, a partnership between two institutions, to influence institutional change to increase the participation of women with disabilities among STEM faculty. Faculty and student successes are interrelated; the goal of AccessADVANCE is to identify effective interventions for systematically addressing issues impacting the career advancement and success of academic women with disabilities. In this paper we share lessons learned regarding policies, practices, and professional development efforts designed to reduce structural and workplace barriers and to make academic STEM careers more welcoming and accessible to women with disabilities.
