abstract: 'Despite advances in treatment, the availability of assistive technology,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), unemployment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
is a significant problem for people with multiple sclerosis (MS). Some
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
researchers have attributed this problem to personal factors, including
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
fatigue or other impairments caused by MS or lack of education and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
training. Other writers focus on societal barriers, including negative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
public attitudes or lack of physical access. This article uses
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
qualitative methods to explore another hypothesis: policies contained
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
within federal programs themselves, such as income maintenance, health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
care, and vocational rehabilitation, constitute a third set of barriers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to employment for people with MS.'
