Description
The Council was established by Congress in 1978 and was transformed into an independent Federal agency in 1984. The 15 members appointed by the President and confirmed by the U.S. Senate review all laws, programs, and policies of the Federal Government affecting individuals with disabilities. The Council then makes recommendations to the President, Congress, and other Federal agencies on these issues.
