The Facts*

	Nearly 20% of all Americans have some type of disability. Because many potential employers are uneducated regarding disabilities, many well-qualified applicants are left unemployed.
	Of the 65 million Americans with a disability, 17.6 million are considered to have a severe disability. Although many of these disabilities do not hinder employment, some prove to be significant obstacles to employment.
	Only 35% of those with severe disabilities are employed, even though they are employable.
	Approximately 50% of those with disabilities rely on some type of governmental financial assistance, even though they are employable.
