High Yield Guide to Disability Resources By Suchita Rastogi & Maїgane Diop What Is Disability? CDC: “A disability is any condition of the body or mind (impairment) that makes it more difficult for the person with the condition to do certain activities (activity limitation) and interact with the world around them (participation restrictions).” WHO: Disability arises from “the interaction between a person’s health condition or impairment and the multitude of influencing factors in their environment.” Disability is Diverse! Examples Include... ● Mental illness: e.g., depression, anxiety, bipolar, PTSD, adjustment disorder, eating disorder ● Chronic illness: e.g., diabetes, heart disease, lupus, IBD, RA, genetic diseases ● Mobility impairments e.g., para/quadriplegic, amputation, dependence on wheelchair/walker/cane ● Sensory impairments e.g., Deaf, hard of hearing, blind, visual impairment, color blindness ● Cognitive/learning disabilities e.g., dyslexia, ADHD, autism, dementia Disability Is Diverse! (continued) Invisible Disability: Umbrella term that captures a whole spectrum of disabilities that are not immediately apparent, i.e. visual or auditory disabilities, chronic pain, chronic fatigue, mental illness, etc.(www.disabled-world.com) Temporary Disability: Temporary illnesses or injuries that significantly impair daily life and activities. (www.ssd.umich.edu) Intersectionality: Disability doesn’t discriminate. It can be found in people from any other affinity group. As a result, one person can have a disability and belong to another marginalized group(s) at the same time. In addition, one’s background (cultural, socioeconomic, etc.) impacts how a person experiences their disability (e.g., acceptance, access to resources, etc.) Disability Comes with Disparities Infographic by Angie Nguyen, Social Media Assistant for the Thompson Policy Institute of Chapman University Disability Comes with Disparities - COVID-19 People with disabilities have suffered disproportionately during the pandemic. ● Less likely to get care when health systems overloaded (triaging favors the non-disabled) ● More likely to contract COVID due to... ○ Use of home help and aides ○ Living in group homes ○ Having pre-existing conditions ● Loss of services that people with disabilities use for basic functioning, e.g.... ○ Day programs ○ Home help and aides Adapted from P. Poullos Stanford PM&R Grand Rounds June 10, 2020 Disability Inclusion: What Are the Rules? Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and ADA Amendment Act (ADAAA): Prohibit discrimination on the basis of disability in employment, public venues, transportation, state and local government services, telecommunications, and private entities that are not private clubs or religious entities Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973: Prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability by employers and organizations with federal funding (including medical schools!) Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA): Designates disability status as a demographic category, mandates data collection to assess health disparities among individuals with disabilities, provides access to high quality and affordable health care to people with disabilities, and mandates accessible preventative screening equipment for people with disabilities, among other requirements and procedures Disability Inclusion: What Are the Rules?

  • Invisible Disabilities and the ADA
    EMPLOYMENT Legal Briefings Invisible Disabilities and the ADA By Equip for Equality1 When someone has an “invisible disability,” such as diabetes, epilepsy, mental health disabilities, traumatic brain injury, or HIV/AIDS, the “invisible” nature of the disability raises unique issues for both the employer and the employee. This legal brief will review the legal issues and court decisions when “invisible” disabilities are at issue. The focus of this legal brief will be on:2 1. Whether the condition constitutes a disability under the ADA as amended; 2. Medical inquiries, examinations, and disability disclosure; 3. Confidentiality; 4. Disabilities must be known by the employer to establish an ADA violation; and 5. Disability harassment. I. Does the Condition Constitute a Disability Under the ADA? The first question in any ADA case is whether the employee is a person with a disability under the ADA. This question is more liberally construed under the ADA Amendments Act of 2008 (ADAAA), which went into effect in 2009.3 The ADAAA provides greater protections for individuals with invisible disabilities due to several changes made in the law. These changes include: liberalizing the definition of disability, removing the requirement that mitigating measures be taken into account when assessing whether an individual has a substantial limitation, and adding additional major life activities including a separate category that includes “major bodily functions.” Congress’ primary focus in enacting the ADAAA was to make clear that the Supreme Court and lower courts had unduly narrowed the definition of disability and, as a result, many people with impairments that it had intended to be covered, had been deemed not to have an ADA disability.4 A.

  • Let's Discuss Invisible Disabilities
    Making the Invisible Visible: Let’s Discuss Invisible Disabilities Michael Edward Goodwin, BSc Indiana University, 1001 East 3rd St, Bloomington, IN 47405 [email protected] Abstract Despite the passage of laws aimed at increasing access and equitable opportunities for students with disabilities in postsecondary education, issues related to disability continue to be rarely discussed in topics related to diversity, inclusion, and educational reform. Disability represents not only an immensely diverse section of the general population, it is a term that is problematic to define, and a term embroiled in controversy, both historically and from a current day perspective. This short piece invites readers to consider the history of how disability has been defined, explores specific issues faced by those living with ‘invisible disabilities’, such as learning disabilities and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), increases awareness of how these issues may affect educational outcomes, and encourages educators to seek best teaching practices that can address the specific needs of particular students in their classes. https://doi.org/10.21692/haps.2020.101 Key words: Invisible disabilities, students with disabilities, equitable opportunities Introduction Access to higher education for individuals with disabilities and curriculum reform, instead being relegated to webpages has increased steadily since the 1970s, especially in recent dedicated to accommodations and services. Central to his decades.

  • INVISIBLE DISABILITY DISCLOSURE by JACQUELINE CÔTÉ Integrated
    INVISIBLE DISABILITY DISCLOSURE By JACQUELINE CÔTÉ Integrated Studies Project submitted to Dr. Ken Banks in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts – Integrated Studies Athabasca, Alberta August, 2009 Disability Disclosure 2 Invisible Disability and Disclosure Introduction The purpose of this project is to study why some people with "invisible disabilities" do not disclose their disability, especially in work and school contexts. My hypothesis is that people who do not disclose their invisible disabilities fear discrimination. However, this lack of disclosure may keep them from receiving needed support or accommodations. People with invisible disabilities face a dilemma. Unlike people with visible disabilities, who generally do not have a choice in whether others are aware of their disabilities, people with invisible disabilities must decide whether or not to reveal their disabilities to others. Many choose not to reveal their invisible disability, and while this choice may sometimes be a benefit there are disadvantages as well. The first step in the research process was to conduct a literature review in order to determine what literature regarding invisible disability disclosure currently existed and to find literature to support why more study is needed. The review of literature also helped define who does or doesn’t disclose disability, some reasons why someone might not disclose, and finally what benefits there could be to disclosure. The review was drawn from online journals, government publications and books which were accessed via the internet and through the Athabasca library loan system. The next step in conducting this research was to construct a survey tool.

  • Invisible Disabilities: Stigma and Belonging 1
    Running head: INVISIBLE DISABILITIES: STIGMA AND BELONGING 1 Invisible Disabilities: Stigma and Belonging A Research Paper Presented to The Faculty of the Adler Graduate School ____________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Master of Arts in Adlerian Counseling and Psychotherapy ____________________________________________________________ By: Megan E. Shaw September 2012 INVISIBLE DISABILITIES: STIGMA AND BELONGING 2 Abstract This researcher sought to understand the struggles associated with invisible disabilities. Invisible Disabilities are just that, invisible, or unseen by the naked eye. Often, invisible disabilities have negative effects on a person’s self-worth and sense of belonging. There is also a stigma associated with a disabled person when one visibly cannot see the disability. The assumption often is if one cannot see it, the suffering must not be that bad. Along with the doubts of the public, internal struggles deepen for the invisibly-disabled person. Mental health professionals must learn how to deal with a client’s self-doubt, depression and feelings of inferiority to name a few. The American’s with Disabilities Act (ADA) has made strides in acknowledging invisible disabilities. However, positive strides can still be made by the public and helping profession to better serve people with invisible disabilities.

  • Invisible Disabilities
    Invisible Disabilities January 15, 2021 In News: Invisible Disability is an umbrella term that captures a whole spectrum of hidden disabilities or challenges that are primarily neurological in nature. What are Invisible Disabilities? Invisible Disability, or hidden disability, is an umbrella term that captures a whole spectrum of hidden disabilities or challenges that are primarily neurological in nature. Invisible disability, or hidden disability, are defined as disabilities that are not immediately apparent. Some people with visual or auditory disabilities who do not wear glasses or hearing aids, or discreet hearing aids, may not be obviously disabled. A sitting disability is another category of invisible impairments; sitting problems are usually caused by chronic back pain. Those with joint problems or chronic pain may not use mobility aids on some days, or at all. Although the disability creates a challenge for the person who has it, the reality of the disability can be difficult for others to recognize or acknowledge. Other Types of Invisible Disabilities Chronic Pain: A variety of conditions may cause chronic pain. A few of those reasons may be back problems, bone disease, physical injuries, and any number of other reasons. Chronic pain may not be noticeable to people who do not understand the victims specific medical condition. Chronic Fatigue: This type of disability refers to an individual who constantly feels tired. This can be extremely debilitating and affect every aspect of a person’s day life. Mental Illness: There are many mental illnesses that do qualify for disability benefits. Some examples are depression, attention deficit disorder, schizophrenia, agoraphobia, and many others.
