Some of the awards are for amounts up to $20,000, while most are not less than $1,000. The directory includes scholarships and financial aid programs in three categories:
Comprehensive disability-related scholarships - for students with any type of disability;
Condition-specific scholarships - (e.g., autism, vision and hearing impairments, cystic fibrosis, learning disabilities, lupus, wheelchair use); and
Group-specific disability scholarships - (e.g., scholarships for caregivers or disabled veterans).
