Description (Dublin Core)
An article by Jane Coaston describing the impact of COVID-19 on people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, from medical rationing in states such as Kansas, Alabama, and Washington, to the high risk of infection at group home facilities, to the concerns that some people have about accessing information and support during the pandemic. Changes such as being unable to visit family members or go out in the community have been difficult for some, and the article describes how the shift to working from home has been a challenge as ‘A lot of people with intellectual disabilities have never been adequately supported to use technology and to access it.’
