In the United States today, there are approximately forty-three million people with some type of disability, and that number is expected to grow during the next few decades as the population ages.

How does an officer arrest someone in a wheelchair? How should an officer interview a deaf person? Can someone who is mentally retarded be a credible witness? Answers to these questions are particularly important now that the Americans with Disabilities Act has been passed by Congress.
