abstract: 'Objective: To examine variation in employment and economic outcomes
before, during, and after the great recession by disability and mental
health status. Methods: Using a sample of adults in the 1999 to 2016
National Health Interview Survey (N = 419,336), we examined changes in
labor force and economic outcomes by mental health and physical
disability status. We employed difference-indifferences analyses to
determine whether the changes in these outcomes during and after the
recession for each comparison group (those with moderate mental illness,
serious psychiatric disability, or physical disability) were
significantly different from the changes for persons with neither a
mental illness nor a disability. Findings: While the recession impacted
all groups, those with mental illnesses or physical disabilities were
hardest hit. Persons with disabilities were disadvantaged on all
outcomes at each period, but persons with mental illnesses were the most
disadvantaged. Unemployment, poverty, and use of food stamps increased
for all groups, but the increase was greatest for persons with mental
health problems who also saw a more substantial decline in wage income.
Conclusions and Implications for Practice: The effects of the recession
persist well after the recovery period. Practitioners should be aware
that although most persons with mental illnesses want to work, they face
significant barriers to employment. Following economic shocks such as
those brought on by the current coronavirus pandemic, interventions
should focus on people who are the most vulnerable, especially those
with mental health problems. Renewed focus on employment for people with
mental disorders is important.'
