Summary

With many state agencies under budgetary pressure, solid information on costs and outcomes of services for people with disabilities has never been more important.

Blending original research with policy analysis, critical reviews of existing knowledge, and examples of cutting-edge programs and policies, this book demonstrates what works and helps readers make sound decisions about how to allocate resources.
