The Annual Disability Statistics Compendium is a publication of statistics about people with disabilities and about the government programs which serve them. The Compendium is designed to serve as a summary of government statistics. The Compendium presents key overall statistics on topics including the prevalence of disability, employment among persons with disabilities, rates of participation in disability income and social insurance programs, and other statistics.
New this year. The Compendium includes several new sections:
- The Research and Training Center on Disability in Rural Communities sponsored a new section with national estimates of sociodemographic information about people with disabilities in the rural US;
- Focusing on factors in the social and physical environments, sections have been added on the intersection of functional difficulties and activities of daily living and housing (e.g., housing quality, year built, type). Housing quality estimates were based on a Census Bureau index that includes adequacy of kitchen and bathroom facilities, overcrowding, and cost burden; and
- Industry and occupation for people with disabilities were added, and the four most prevalent industries and occupations were stratified by state.
We have titled these resources by the year the product was released; this may not match the year in the title which references the year the data was from.
