Making Accessibility Real, Affordable, and Human-First

Inclusive Solutions Consulting (ISC) is a disability-led consultancy turning accessibility from a compliance obligation into a competitive advantage.
Founded by Gabriel Harris — a C2/C3 quadriplegic and lived-experience strategist — ISC helps organizations move beyond checklists with practical, human-first solutions that drive real inclusion.

We make accessibility actionable, affordable, and culturally transformative — so it strengthens your organization, not your paperwork.
From audits and InclusiveReady™ Certification to training and inclusion strategy, we equip businesses, nonprofits, and governments with the tools to lead with equity and impact.

Because inclusion isn’t charity — it’s infrastructure. And the sooner it’s built, the stronger your organization becomes.

Our Social Impact

Equity Isn’t Charity—It’s Infrastructure.

At Inclusive Solutions Consulting, every project moves accessibility from an afterthought to a foundation.
We help organizations embed equity into their systems — creating workplaces, policies, and cultures that last.

What is Inclusive Ready Certification?

InclusiveReady™ is our flagship accessibility certification. It recognizes organizations that go beyond compliance to build real, human-first inclusion.

Affordable pricing for small businesses and large institutions alike

InclusiveReady™ makes accessibility visible, credible, and achievable.

How is Inclusive Solutions different from the Rick Hansen Foundation’s RHFAC?

The Rick Hansen Foundation Accessibility Certification (RHFAC) is the largest program in Canada — but it’s also known for being expensive, bureaucratic, and intimidating for small organizations.

Inclusive Solutions Consulting was created as the practical, lived-experience alternative.

Here’s how we’re different:

Affordable & Scalable: Our audits and certification are priced to fit small businesses, nonprofits, and large organizations alike.
Lived Experience First: Every audit and training is delivered by someone who has navigated accessibility firsthand, not just on paper.
Streamlined Process: No unnecessary red tape — we focus on what matters and give you clear, actionable steps.
Culture + Compliance: Where RHFAC can feel like a checklist, InclusiveReady™ also builds awareness and inclusion culture through training and mentorship.
If RHFAC is the institutional option, InclusiveReady™ is the authentic, human-first path to accessibility recognition.

Do you offer virtual audits or training outside Vancouver?

Yes. All services can be delivered remotely, including:

Accessibility walkthroughs (virtual)
Training & awareness workshops
Certification consultations and reviews

Can you help us meet our ESG or DEI goals?

Yes. We support organizations embedding accessibility into their ESG and DEI strategy through:

ESG reporting & strategy alignment

Accessibility is not just compliance — it’s a measurable ESG advantage.
