SOME BASIC FACTS FROM THE COUNCIL FOR EXCEPTIONAL CHILDREN (C.E.C.)…
• 72% of individuals with disabilities are unemployed (Butterworth et al., 2011).
• More than one-third of people living in poverty in the U.S. (39%) are individuals with disabilities (U.S. Census, 2010).
• Overall, persons with disabilities are far more likely than nondisabled persons to live in poverty (26% compared to 9%) (National Organization on Disability & Harris, 2004).
• Of employed young individuals with disabilities who are post-high school for four years or less, more than half (54%) earn less than $5,000 per year. And only 11% earn $25,000 or more per year. (Newman et al., 2009).
