Government programs promise opportunity—but are they actually holding people back? 📊 Let’s uncover the real numbers and rethink the path forward for disability employment. 💡

✅ October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month, spotlighting disability workforce challenges
✅ Only 37.4% of working-age people with disabilities are employed in 2024
✅ Roughly 75% of all people with disabilities 16+ are not in the labor force
✅ Nearly 25% of working-age adults with disabilities live in poverty compared to 10% of peers
✅ Federal interventions like ADA and Rehabilitation Act provide vital civil rights protections
✅ Workforce programs and benefits often create “benefit cliffs” that discourage work
✅ Hundreds of billions have been spent with stagnant employment outcomes
✅ Two-thirds of people with disabilities remain unemployed or out of the workforce
✅ Market-driven solutions may outperform rigid federal programs
✅ Part two will explore fresh ideas for real change in disability employment

True inclusion requires more than laws—it demands smarter solutions that lift people with disabilities into real opportunities. 🌟
