Emerging Trends Public Consultation
John R. Vaughn
Chairman
NCD

The National Council on Disability (NCD) is gathering public input for a 
study of emerging issues and trends affecting the lives of people with 
disabilities. Information gathered will be used in the development of NCD's 
next annual progress report to the President and Congress, "National 
Disability Policy: A Progress Report," which is required by Section 401(b)

equal opportunity for all individuals with disabilities, and empower 
individuals with disabilities to achieve economic self-sufficiency, 
independent living, and inclusion and integration into all aspects of 
society.
