Options For Youth With Disabilities: A Focus On Competitive Integrated Employment Limits, Tatyana Safronova
Options For Youth With Disabilities: A Focus On Competitive Integrated Employment Limits, Tatyana Safronova
University of the District of Columbia Law Review
For people with disabilities, employment outcomes are discouraging. In 2021, only 19% were employed, a third of the employment rate for people without disabilities.1 Disabled individuals worked part-time because they could not find full-time work or because of a reduction in hours. 2 Fewer disabled persons had bachelor or higher degrees, and fewer worked in professional and managerial positions than people without disabilities. 3 To make it possible for disabled adults to get well-paying jobs, we must ensure that disabled youth have a solid educational foundation. That requires that more youth graduate high school; only 68.2% of students with disabilities …

Police Officers' Perceptions Regarding Their Interactions With The Disabled In Kankakee County, Jilliann English
Scholar Week 2016 - present
Background
Previous research shows the rate of crime against people with disabilities is significantly higher than the general population (Child et al., 2011). Despite this, gaps in the training and resources for officers to assist those with disabilities may exist (Gardner, Campbell, and Westdal, 2019). Eadens et al. (2008) explored this issue by evaluating officer attitudes towards intellectual disabilities. Kankakee County has a significant disabled population (CHSA, 2019), and Illinois is ranked very low in the improvement of related policies (ANCOR, 2019), making this an area of interest.
Methods
This study utilized the modified version of the Social Distance Questionnaire …

Disability And Transnational Arbitration: Human Rights Linkages And Reasonable Accommodations, Ilias Bantekas
William & Mary Business Law Review
Disability intersects with arbitration as regards the mental capacity of a party to enter into an arbitration agreement, the appointment of arbitrators with disability and grounds for removal thereof, accommodations during arbitral proceedings for arbitrators and counsel with disabilities, as well as the costs for all appropriate accommodations. This Article demonstrates that the right to a fair trial, which is universally recognized in arbitration, dictates that parties and arbitral institutions be free to select arbitrators of their choice, and no impediments may be imposed against arbitrators with disabilities other than that they are able to fulfill the functions of their …

A Picture Worth A Thousand Words: Factors Influencing Disability Accommodations, Alicia E. Martin
Cal Poly Humboldt theses and projects
Because not all disabilities look the same it is difficult to label a person with disabilities just by looking at them. Given that our knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions impact how we interpret our world and our willingness to act, people, including professors, may be biased toward providing accommodations for those with easily recognizable disabilities and biased against those with non-recognizable disabilities, and this may impact the disabled person’s ability to learn. This thesis aims to address whether professors’ disability-related attitudes, perceptions of accommodation reasonableness, and willingness to provide accommodations differ when the disability is recognizable (student is pictured in a …
