2016 Annual Disability Statistics Compendium
Lauer, E. A.; Houtenville, A. J.
Institute on Disability, University of New Hampshire
The "Annual Disability Statistics Compendium" is a publication of statistics about people with disabilities and about the government programs which serve them. The "Compendium" is designed to serve as a summary of government statistics. The 2016 "Annual Disability Statistics Compendium" was substantially revised and expanded this year. The "Compendium" presents key overall statistics for each section. A new "Annual Disability Statistics Supplement," only available online, presents tables with additional categorizations of data for each section highlighted in the "Compendium." With the addition of over 150 tables, the "Compendium" and "Supplement" now provide enhanced tables by age, gender and race/ethnicity. In addition, a section on Employment Policy has been added to the "Compendium." The Employment Policy section includes statistics on topics such as minimum wage rates and earned income tax credit rates for people living in the United States. Several sections in the "Compendium" were removed in 2016. The topics removed had not been updated by the authors for several years. Although no longer available in this year's "Compendium" or "Supplement," these older tables can still be accessed in previous Compendiums which are available online at www.disabilitycompendium.org. A companion "Annual Report" is available, providing graphic representations of key findings and state differences. The "Annual Report" highlights state and trend data using maps related to specific tables in the "Compendium" and Supplement. [For the Annual Report, "2016 Disability Statistics Annual Report. A Publication of the Rehabilitation Research and Training Center on Disability Statistics and Demographics," see ED583249.]
