Midlife Women With Disabilities: Another Challenge for Social Workers
The paucity of information about midlife women with disabilities led to a qualitative study of 25 such women. The study found that these are competent, independent women who provide care for family mem bers and friends and participate in the community. However, the women need services to maintain the control necessary to function. Social workers can help them by locating role models and mentors and by working with policymakers to develop beneficial programs and policies.
