Abstract	The United States' child population is becoming increasingly racially diverse, and the proportion of children identified with disabilities is on an upward trajectory, but persistent disparities in outcomes based on race and disability status across education systems endure. At the intersection of these populations are children of color with disabilities, who experience greater obstacles along their education pathways and poorer academic outcomes than their nondisabled and/or white peers. For this report, the authors interviewed families of children of color with disabilities to understand their experiences with education, recognizing these families as experts in their own lives. While every interview was unique, the stories of these families illustrate the challenges many families of color with children with disabilities face in accessing high-quality services. Despite differences in geography, family structure, and the types of disabilities that their children have, the problems these families face -- and their ideas for how to make things better -- were consistent.
