Position Summary
Public Health - Seattle & King County (PHSKC) is seeking a Disability Equity and ADA Manager (Project/Program Manager III) who will bring their lived experiences as well as their technical knowledge to provide subject matter expertise and policy guidance to the Office of Equity and Community Partnerships in the Director’s Office of Public Health – Seattle & King County. The position will support Public Health in furtherance of its commitment to providing equitable and accessible services in all of its programs and services by applying their knowledge of Title II of the ADA. The person in this position will lead a self-evaluation and transition plan of current services, policies and practices that do not or may not meet the requirements of Title II. The Disability Equity and ADA Manager will ensure that the needs of people living with disabilities are incorporated into the department’s work to reduce and eliminate racial/ethnic disparities, as well as disparities for people with disabilities.

Background
Office of Equity and Community Partnerships: Anti-racism and community co-creation drive desired outcomes, decisions, resource allocation, program design, and results across the determinants of equity. As part of an extremely diverse group and office, this position will be able to advance practices and systems at the program, division and department level to advance disability and racial equity and ADA compliance.

Commitment To Equity and Social Justice
Named after Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., one of the most influential civil rights leaders in our nation's history, King County is a vibrant international community with residents that represent countries from around the world. It is a region with increasing diversity that cherishes the traditions of many cultures.

The county government has a deep commitment to equity and social justice and advancing practices, strategies, and policies that promote fairness, justice, and opportunity for all – in our workplaces and our communities. With this commitment, King County has adopted a pro-equity agenda to advance regional change and ensure that residents from all communities are incorporated into our emergency planning and public outreach efforts.

We recognize that structural racism consists of principles and practices that cause and justify an inequitable distribution of rights, opportunities, and experiences across racial groups. Since declaring Racism is a Public Health Crisis in June 2020, King County and Public Health committed to being intentionally anti-racist and accountable to Black, Indigenous and People of Color communities.
