Statistics on Jobs for People with Disabilities
Data from the 2019 Annual Disability Statistics Compendium shows that while Americans with disabilities are entering the workforce in greater numbers, serious gaps in employment exist between different states. If you want to know how your state is doing on jobs for people with disabilities, the tables on this page are an easy way to find out. For more information on the data, you can read our press release.

To review the Compendium itself, please visit their outstanding website here: https://www.disabilitycompendium.org.
