COVID-19 Disability Needs Assessment Report
Lakeshore Foundation and the National Center on Health, Physical Activity and Disability (NCHPAD), initiated a survey to explore current needs of people with disabilities and/or chronic health conditions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The survey was released online over a two-week period from April 2, 2020 through April 17, 2020 targeting people with disabilities and/or chronic health conditions and those who are family members or caregivers. A national representation of over 1,400 people resulted in findings consistent with public health evidence showing the disability community continues to see critical, unmet needs during the COVID-19 pandemic.
