Improving Disability Inclusion

This ASTHO report, which was co-authored with the World Institute on Disabilities, answers top questions around disability preparedness initiatives, and prioritizes inclusive planning while providing overarching guidance that can be applied to a variety of health and public health systems and structures. The report highlights key planning considerations to ensure public health emergency plans include people with disabilities, and is intended to be used in conjunction with other department and agency plans, as well as disability agencies in the local jurisdiction.
