Abuse is a very real threat for many people with disabilities. The Arc offers a collection of research papers, articles and curriculum free of charge through its Resource Center, as well as training for self-advocates and their families and organizations that serve people with disabilities.

People with disabilities are at far greater risk for abuse than people without disabilities.
