DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis report reviews federal laws and programs affecting persons with disabilities and assesses the extent to which they: provide incentives or disincentives to the establishment of community-based services for handicapped individuals; promote the full integration of such individuals in the community, in schools, and in the workplace; and contribute to the independence and dignity of such individuals. An introductory chapter provides a description of the demographics of the U.S. disabled population. A list of federal programs serving people with disabilities is prioritized according to federal expenditures, with an estimated number of persons with disabilities served. Summarized are the National Council on the Handicapped's legislative recommendations in 10 issue areas: equal opportunity laws; employment; disincentives to work under social security laws; prevention of disabilities; transportation; housing; community-based services for independent living; educating children with disabilities; personal assistance such as attendant services, readers, and interpreters; and coordination. The recommendations propose modifications in the expenditure of disability-related dollars to improve the ability of persons with disabilities to live with dignity and as independently as possible within their communities. The report concludes with biographies of Council members. (JDD)
