Open AccessMiriam Heyman, Frank Li et al.ARTICLEHousing and Society2026Referências: 13
Housing stability, including affordability and housing tenure status (renting vs. owning), contributes to parent, child, and family wellbeing. While there are documented disparities related to housing stability for disabled adults, less is known about the housing circumstances of disabled adults who are also parents. Given the adverse impact of housing instability for families and children, this study uses American Community Survey (ACS) data fro…

Ilhom Akobirshoev, Robyn M Powell et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2026Referências: 26

Disability status was defined using the American Community Survey's 6-item measure. The primary outcome was self-reported p…

Also, there is very little information about the life circumstances of parents with disabilities. This study uses the American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year data, 2016–2020, to explore the prevalence and life circumstances of disabled parents in the United States. Findings indicate that there are roughly 65.9 million parents in …
Pregnancy Intendedness by Presence and Extent of Disability in the USA, 2019–2020
Open AccessAbigail Newby‐kew, Jonathan M Snowden et al.ARTICLEPerspectives on Sexual and…2025Referências: 1
Context Over 40% of pregnancies in the United States are unintended. Women with unintended pregnancies may be less likely to receive timely prenatal care and engage in healthy behaviors immediately before and during pregnancy. Limited research suggests that women with disabilities are more likely to have an unintended pregnancy, but to date no studies have assessed whether intendedness varies by extent of disability. Methods We analyzed 2019–2020…
