Disaggregating the Asian “Other”
Asian Americans comprise the fastest growing racial or ethnic group in the US. Between 2000 and 2019, their numbers almost doubled, from 11.9 million to 22.2 million. The numbers of people with disabilities within this demographically important population, which are also growing, puts stress on the service delivery sector. This situation indicates a pressing need for research on lived experiences of disabled Asian Americans. A review of the extan…

Although the disability community has moved from relative apathy to consistent concern over the past two decades, our field has attempted to address symptoms …

Disability Among Ethnic and Racial Minorities in the United States

Analyses were based on the 1992 and 1993 Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) and the 1993 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS). Estimates were congruent with previous reports indicating highest overall rates for disability among Native Americans, lowest for Asians,…
