Airdate: Monday, August 29, 2022


A new report finds that those living with a disability faced bigger challenges and hardships during the COVID-19 pandemic. The report – “COVID-19 Health Care Barriers Among People with Disabilities – is the first part of a multi-year effort funded by the CDC’s COVID-19 Health Disparities Grant to improve health equity.”


The ARC of Pennsylvania provides services and advocates for Pennsylvanians living with disabilities. We’re joined today by The Arc’s Executive Director Sherri Landis and Emma Nolan, the manager of health initiatives.
