Download or read book Financial Aid for Persons with Disabilities and Their Families written by Gail Schlachter and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-04-05 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHY THIS DIRECTORY IS NEEDED With a total population of more than 50 million, the disabled constitute America's largest (and fastest growing) "minority" group. Each year, billions of dollars in financial aid are set aside to assist persons with disabilities, along with members of their families. But, how can these individuals find out about the available funding? While numerous print and online listings have been prepared to identify and describe general financial aid opportunities (those open to all segments of society), none of those resources have covered more than a small portion of the programs designed primarily or exclusively at individuals with disabilities or their family members. That's why Gail A. Schlachter and R. David Weber biennially issue Financial Aid for Persons with Disabilities and Their Families (formerly published as Financial Aid for the Disabled and Their Families), which identifies billions of dollars set aside each year specifically for members of these groups to support study, research, creative activities, travel, career development, emergencies, and much more. WHAT'S UNIQUE ABOUT THIS DIRECTORY Financial Aid for Persons with Disabilities and Their Families is the first and only publication to identify and provide comprehensive information on the nearly 1,400 programs established to provide funding to those with physical, sensory, or other disabilities, as well as to their family members. The listings in this book cover every major field of study, are sponsored by more than 600 different private and public agencies and organizations, and are open to all levels of applicants - from high school and college students to professionals, postdoctorates, and others. And, not only does Financial Aid for Persons with Disabilities and Their Families provide the most comprehensive coverage of available funding, it also displays the most informative program descriptions (on the average, more than twice the detail found in any other listing). In addition to this extensive and focused coverage, the 2018-2020 edition of the directory offers several other unique features. First, all funding described here is substantial; every program offers at least $1,000, and many award $10,000 or more. Even better, all of this is "free" money; not one dollar will ever need to be repaid (provided, of course, recipients meet the program requirements). Another plus: you can take the money awarded by these funding programs to any number of locations. Unlike other financial aid directories, which often list large numbers of scholarships available only to students enrolled at one specific school, all of the entries in this book are "portable." And, many of the programs listed here have never been covered in other financial aid directories. So, even if you have searched elsewhere, you will want to look here for new leads.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews federal laws and programs affecting persons with disabilities and assesses the extent to which they: provide incentives or disincentives to the establishment of community-based services for handicapped individuals; promote the full integration of such individuals in the community, in schools, and in the workplace; and contribute to the independence and dignity of such individuals. An introductory chapter provides a description of the demographics of the U.S. disabled population. A list of federal programs serving people with disabilities is prioritized according to federal expenditures, with an estimated number of persons with disabilities served. Summarized are the National Council on the Handicapped's legislative recommendations in 10 issue areas: equal opportunity laws; employment; disincentives to work under social security laws; prevention of disabilities; transportation; housing; community-based services for independent living; educating children with disabilities; personal assistance such as attendant services, readers, and interpreters; and coordination. The recommendations propose modifications in the expenditure of disability-related dollars to improve the ability of persons with disabilities to live with dignity and as independently as possible within their communities. The report concludes with biographies of Council members. (JDD)
