Deaka McClain
Change Agent
A lifelong advocate, public speaker, and mentor who, having been born with cerebral palsy, knows firsthand the power of positive change and the value of using one’s voice.

My Core Gift
My core gift is being able to help people know they can impact and influence others to feel empowered, to realize they deserve more in life, and to be willing to accept it for themselves. I want people to feel that they can be their authentic selves, unfold their layers without feeling judged, see their vision and purpose in life, and know there's always room for change, maturity, and growth.

Testimonials
Ms. McClain is an incredible speaker. She is able to captivate an audience, connect with her audience and communicate clearly to anyone who she is talking with. She is able to tell her story in a way that makes everyone feel comfortable and included. Whether she is speaking to a large crowd, a group of board members or as part of a video explaining the challenges that a Black woman with a disability faces on an everyday basis, she does it at a high level. I recommend Ms. McClain as a great speaker and leader.
