What Plena Inclusión Aragón does

Plena Inclusión Aragón is a non-profit federation founded in 1990 and headquartered in Zaragoza, Spain, coordinating 37 member entities that serve people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families across the Aragon autonomous community. The organization is part of the national Plena Inclusión España federation and operates as an umbrella body providing employment support, training, cognitive accessibility services, and social inclusion programs to its member organizations and end beneficiaries. Its employment department offers individualized job accompaniment and public employment exam preparation (priced at approximately €65 monthly per participant), while the Health, Training, and Innovation departments provide complementary programming including the CODI digital competencies program for children and young people.

The organization's core technical offering is the Creando Espacios Accesibles (Creating Accessible Spaces) service line, which conducts cognitive accessibility assessments of physical and digital environments using a four-phase participatory methodology involving teams of people with and without disabilities. The organization has completed 49 accessibility studies (37 public spaces, 6 private, 6 third sector), delivers training and awareness programs (90 courses between 2016-2023 reaching 1,311+ people), and offers Lectura Fácil (Easy Reading) document adaptation and validation services following the UNE 153101:2018 EX standard. Digital tools include the Creando Espacios Accesibles mobile app and the Mefacilyta app co-developed with Fundación Vodafone España.

Plena Inclusión Aragón's business model is primarily funded through public grants from the Government of Aragon, Spain's Ministry of Social Rights and Agenda 2030, the European Social Fund, and banking foundations (Fundación La Caixa, Fundación Ibercaja), supplemented by modest fee-based services. The organization holds multiple certifications including AENOR IQNet, RSA+ 2026, Distintivo Igualdad en la Empresa (since 2020), and was the first autonomous federation to implement the Calidad Plena quality model. Its go-to-market is community-led through the federated member network, with strategic partnerships spanning government bodies, academic institutions, disability foundations, and corporate funders.
