StreamElements has revealed the 16 recipients of its 2023 Creator Diversity Program (CDP).
Now in its third year, the program is intended to provide content creators from overlooked communities with professional livestreaming services, equipment, support, and funds "to help them optimize their channels for success."
This year's collective includes content creators who are disabled, people of color, LGBTQIA2S+, women, and of APIM (Asian, Pacific Islander, and Middle Eastern) identities.
The recipients, which include Twitch partners and affiliates from North America and Europe are:
StreamElements says the selection was based upon several factors, such as why they applied, their content, channel data, and growth potential.
The 2023 CDP will run from May 2023 to May 2024.
"We created this program to benefit marginalized creators who are trying to reach the next stage in their streaming careers," said StreamElements CDP co-director Taylor Shields.
"Some need better equipment and graphics, while others lack guidance and opportunities that can be the stepping stone they are looking for. Our aim is to provide that extra boost given how much adversity there is in this industry."
