Contributors discuss longstanding challenges to these communities, most notably economic and environmental obstacles and ongoing barriers to service delivery, as well as their resilience and strengths. Intersections of health, social, structural, and access disparities are shown affecting rural disabled populations such as women, racial and sexual minorities, youth, and elders. In terms of responses, a comprehensive array of healthcare and health policy solutions and recommendations is critiqued with regard to health, employment, and service effectiveness outcomes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded among the topics:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHealthcare initiatives, strategies, and challenges for people with disabilities in rural, frontier, and territory settings.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChallenges faced by veterans residing in rural communities.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Asia and Pacific region: rural-urban impact on disability.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChallenges after natural disaster for rural residents with disabilities.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeeting the needs of rural adults with mental illness and dual diagnoses.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacity building in rural communities through community-based collaborative partnerships.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDisability and Vocational Rehabilitation in Rural Settings\u003c\/i\u003e makes a worthy textbook for graduate students and upper-level undergraduates in the fields of social work, community and environmental psychology, public health, sociology, education, and geography.
