Disability in the Public Health Curriculum, Association of Schools
of Public Health
This project is to write a book for faculty, administrators, and students
at schools of public health on disability in the public health curriculum.
The book explores the current treatment of, and potential to enhance coverage
of, disability-related issues within the field of public health education.
Specific chapters focus on disability and epidemiology, health services,
environmental health, maternal and child health, health law, and international
health. The chapters examine research-related issues, teaching materials,
the schools as service providers, and the schools as accessible institutions.
