Abstract
Physically disabled people belong to a distinctive minority group for whom affirmative action measures in social work education and employment are long overdue. That the disabled have been neglected is reflective of their circumstances generally and of the existence of other priorities for affirmative action in social work. The author discusses why affirmative action for the disabled is warranted, identifies issues and needs that must be considered in developing affirmative action programs, and suggests means for identifying and recruiting qualified disabled students.
