ADA Disability Law and Policy- A National Audio-Conference

Tuesday December 18

Speaker
Peter Blanck, JD, Ph.D, Chair, Burton Blatt Institute, Syracuse

Reviewing previous research efforts, this session sets out a
blueprint for the role of research, policy, and law in advancing the
civic, economic and social participation of persons with disabilities
in a global society. It reviews past public policy efforts and
research findings regarding workers with disabilities. It discusses
current and future research initiatives on the cutting edge of
promoting successful employment outcomes for people with
disabilities. The discussion presents promising research
methodologies in multidisciplinary field disability and employment
research. Finally, our presenter will put forth challenges and
opportunities for research, policy, and legal initiatives, framing a
blueprint for the next quarter century.
