This presents the results of focus groups that were conducted in Chicago with 18 people with disabilities. Six primary themes emerged from the discussion: (1) national legislation and discrimination; (2) perceptions of people with disabilities; (3) accommodations and accessibility; (4) responsibilities of citizens and government; (5) dissemination of policy information; and (6) the intersection of employment, income support and other benefits. Discussion of these themes also occurs in the welfare to work literature pertaining to people with disabilities in the United States. This subsection explores each of these themes and how that data supports the consistency between welfare to work policy and human rights.
