Overview:
Municipalities have a tremendous opportunity to design their financial empowerment initiatives so that they are inclusive and accessible for people with disabilities from the start. Local governments and community partners are better equipped to address the specific challenges of people with disabilities because they can leverage proven examples of programs, approaches and policies that work. Available data, accessibility policies and the synergy that can be created by bringing the right partners to the table can equip municipalities with the right resources to more intentionally serve people with disabilities as part of their financial empowerment work.
