National Council on Disability. National Summit on Disability Policy 2010. Living, Learning & Earning.

July 25–28, 2010 • Renaissance Washington, D.C. Downtown Hotel

Working Papers

A set of 10 working papers has been developed to provide background information for the key topics folded into the three broad pillars of Living, Learning, and Earning. The 10 working papers address: civil rights, health care, education, employment, housing, transportation, technology, emergency management, statistics and data, and international affairs.

Each paper summarizes key policy accomplishments and highlights current issues in its topic area. For issues that cut across topics, major discussion was limited to one paper to avoid duplication. Authors completed systematic literature reviews and environmental scans, drawing heavily from NCD reports to collect information for the working papers, and worked collaboratively with NCD to finalize the content.

All papers are .doc format, which can be opened with Microsoft Word.
