The past 30 years have been a period of fundamental change in public policies that relate to disability, from the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) of 1970, through hundreds of state workers' compensation enactments of the 1980s and 1990s and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, to the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) of 1998. The Upjohn Institute has maintained an active research interest in disability issues through most of this period. This article briefly reviews Institute contributions and outlines some research opportunities.
