Emergency Management Research and People with Disabilities: A Resource Guide
Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services, US Department of Education
This National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR) resource guide on emergency management research and people with disabilities provides a listing and description of research projects funded by the federal government and nonfederal entities, research recommendations that have come out of conferences on emergency management and disability, and a bibliography of relevant research publications. Many federal agencies participated in the effort to identify research projects and conference recommendations. In all, the authors were able to identify 16 federally funded and four nonfederally funded research projects specific to emergency management and people with disabilities. This guide is intended to facilitate the development and implementation of a nationwide research agenda on emergency management and people with disabilities, so that a strong evidence base can be developed about the best ways to ensure the safety and security of people with disabilities in emergency and disaster situations.
