"Be it the result of blatant discrimination, or a narrow focus by policymakers or professionals, historically we have been led to believe there are only two options for people with disabilities: reliance on familial assistance plus social safety nets, or wage employment. However, there is another possibility: self-directed employment - people with disabilities owning their own businesses. Disability and Self-directed Employment is the first comprehensive exploration of this alternative. It began as the United Nations Decade of Disabled Persons was coming to a close, with the question: "What international initiative could also serve as a lasting benefit to persons with disabilities in all parts of the world?" The answer is this thorough study of systematic approaches intended to aid in the creation of self-directed employment for disabled people."--BOOK JACKET.
