To help provide a little perspective and context, we thought we’d share some interesting facts:

• More than 40 million Americans are currently living with disabilities, making it the largest minority group in the country

• Approximately one in six individuals in the United States has a disability

• More than 50 percent of Americans report having a family member or close friend with a disability

• Disability has no prejudice - there are people with disabilities in every facet and subdivision of American society

• It is the ONLY minority group that anyone can join at any time due to accident, illness or aging
