"The 411 on Disability Disclosure: A Workbook for Youth with Disabilities" is designed to help young people make informed decisions about whether or not to disclose their disability and understand how that decision may impact their education, employment, and social lives. Topics include:

  • Should I disclose?
  • If I decide to disclose, who is an appropriate person to tell?
  • When should I disclose?
  • How much should I disclose?

The 99-page workbook is available from the National Collaborative on Workforce and Disability for Youth (NCWD/Youth) at http://www.ncwd-youth.info/resources_&_Publications/411.html. A limited supply of print copies is available. If you are interested in receiving a copy, send an e-mail to publications@ncwd-youth.info or call 1-877-871-0744.
