Product Description:

The Screen Actors Guild (SAG) released the executive summary of a first-of-its-kind study conducted by Olivia Raynor, Ph.D and Katharine Hayward Ph.D from the National Arts and Disability Center at UCLA that reveals performers with disabilities are significantly underrepresented in the entertainment industry and often reluctant to ask producers for even the most minor accommodations. The new study is especially significant because little data currently exists on the experiences and representation of performers with disabilities.
