Nearly 54 million Americans have a disability; 26 million have a severe disability. Every person with a disability is part of a larger group that includes families, friends and professionals. That means the domestic disability market in the United States alone, includes more than 150 million people. For Americans without disabilities, technology makes things easier. For those with disabilities, technology makes things possible. Half The Planet has comprehensive, reliable information, ideas, products and services for the entire adaptation community, including people with disabilities, families, friends, co-workers, employers, manufacturers, distributors, service providers, educators, legislators, regulators and advocates.
