Public policy and initiative supporting accessibility in public places such as parks, theaters, and recreational facilities:
a. Is unnecessary because people with disabilities have access to leisure opportunities that nondisabled people have
b. Is nice, but not necessary because people with disabilities understand that it would cost a lot to include them
c. Is essential to supporting healthy adult lifestyles and should be advocated for by all people, including therapists working with people with disabling conditions
d. Is excessive and a waste of taxpayer money, as people with disabilities already have access to a free and appropriate public education

Question 2

Which of the following is true about the educational experiences of adults living with disabling conditions?
a. People with low self-expectations or negative experiences in childhood educational settings usually can regroup and often seek further education as adults.
b. People with negative experiences in educational settings may choose to leave school early, and this decision can have a lasting negative impact on adult lifestyles.
c. People with lifelong disabilities often have educational achievements consistent with their abilities. This is not true of people with acquired disabilities.
d. People with disabling conditions are unlikely to be successful in higher education settings, so the focus of therapy support should be on ADL, IADL, and leisure participation.
