The Financial Health of People with Disabilities: Key Obstacles and Opportunities

The new report, The Financial Health of People with Disabilities: Key Obstacles and Opportunities, published in partnership with the Financial Health Network and The Harkin Institute, finds that people with disabilities are far less likely to be Financially Healthy than those without disabilities. The research uncovers multiple obstacles – including employment barriers, financial exclusion and public safety net constraints – that may be undermining their financial health. This report explores the complex challenges faced by people with disabilities in their daily financial lives, while identifying several opportunities to foster equity and financial well-being across the disability community.
