This issue brief shares findings from the Rapid Assessment of Pandemic Impact on Development, finding that parents of young children with disabilities are experiencing higher rates of stress, anxiety, and depression as a result of loss of services in a virtual environment. It outlines state policies that could be considered to provide families with supports to reduce parental stress.
COVID-19 has had a major impact on services for children with disabilities, including loss of in-person therapy services like physical therapy and occupational therapy, loss of access to special education accommodations available through schools, and loss of health insurance to cover services for those families now unemployed.
