Event Description: 

The Institute of Disability at the University of New Hampshire will be hosting the 2014 Annual Compendium of Disability Statistics and Research-to-Policy Roundtable on Wednesday, December 3, 2014 in Washington, DC.

The Compendium Release Briefing will include a briefing and a one-hour workshop on the sources and uses of disability statistics. The Compendium is a web-based tool that pools disability statistics published by various federal agencies together in one place. When working on legislative and other matters relating to persons with disabilities, the Compendium will make finding and using disability statistics easier. It will prove invaluable to your work.

The Research-to-Policy Roundtable will provide an opportunity for disability advocates, policymakers, and researchers to discuss ways that research can assist policymakers in developing programs, policies, and legislation that support people with disabilities.
