Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

People with disabilities can be any age, face chronic health conditions or mental illness, be racial or ethnic minorities, experience low income or housing insecurity, have limited English proficiency, or a combination of many of these conditions. To better understand the effect of health inequities and the manner in which they affect Social Security Administration's (SSA) disability programs, the National Academies hosted a public workshop in April 2024 that examined the variety of different experiences of individuals with disabilities and the consequences of those experiences on an individual's health status, medical record, and SSA disability determinations.
