    A disability is the result of the interaction between people living with impairments and barriers in the physical, attitudinal, communication and social environment. For example, it is not the inability to walk that keeps a person from entering a building by themselves, but the stairs that are inaccessible to them. A disability is socially constructed as a the disadvantage or restriction of activity caused by a society which takes little or no account of people who have impairments and thus excludes them from mainstream activity. 

    Here you will find materials addressing how energy poverty intersects with physical disability. This section includes resources that explore the specific barriers people with disabilities face in accessing energy and how these challenges impact health, mobility, and quality of life.
    Resources are alphabetized and tailored to support municipalities, intermediaries, and citizens in creating inclusive, accessible responses.
