Government policy is now focused on increasing the labor force participation of persons with disabilities. However, this shift in policy has not resulted in much success. This luncheon address by Peter Blanck, Michael Morris, and Leonard Sandler will examine what needs to be done to promote self-sufficiency and inclusion for people with disabilities.
