About Kayla

Kayla Carter is a Tkaronto-based facilitator, writer, consultant, and community educator. Kayla’s work focuses on disability justice, anti-racism, co-design, curriculum design, collective care, and unpacking the institutional, social, and material effects that race, gender, disability, and class and their intersections have on our collective lives. With over 10 years of experience as an internationally acclaimed facilitator, consultant, writer, and educator their approach to their work has been by engaging with equity, diversity, and inclusivity from a disability justice, anti-racist, and trauma-informed practice. Their deep love for all things policy and policy accessibility has allowed them to work with universities and not-for-profits across the country on revising accessibility, sexual misconduct, and anti-racism policies. Kayla has merged their lived experience as a Black, disabled, queer, femme, and their MA. in Critical Disability Studies, to create a career that is rooted in nourishing, fostering, and amplifying the voices and experiences of those who are institutionally, structurally, and systematically silenced. Kayla is so excited to merge their love for music, performance, storytelling and accessibility as the Accesibility Coordinator for Xenia Concerts.
