An estimated 10 percent of children in the United States are living with disabilities, including a disproportionate number of children living in poverty and children of marginalized racial and ethnic groups. During the pandemic, children with disabilities suffered disproportionately compared to their peers without disabilities.

Workshop presenters included service providers, researchers, government leaders, youth with disabilities, and caregivers of children and youth with disabilities.
