Help Us Close the Gap
Research shows that people with disabilities often have fewer opportunities for education and jobs. Even though the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guarantees equal access, many people with disabilities still experience poverty and lack educational opportunities. High housing costs and medical expenses add to their financial struggles.
