The COVID-19 pandemic created unique challenges for everyone, but many people with physical, developmental and cognitive challenges have had to adapt to even more uncertainty and frustration. How has access to medical and social services changed? What about the isolation facing those in assisted living facilities? We discuss the barriers and the resources available to people with disabilities on Talk of Alaska.
