What will it take to reverse disabled unemployent rates?

We have normalised the invisibility of disabled people in New Zealand, says Jonathan Mosen on The Spinoff, and massive disabled unemployment is the result. “48% of us [disabled people] are not in employment, education or training. This is an invisible epidemic, largely ignored by all of our country’s decision-makers.” Mosen goes on to ask, “Why aren’t we hearing about this unacceptable statistic in our news bulletins regularly, until every political party has a clear action plan to address it? I believe it is because we have normalised the invisibility of disabled people.”
