have, in the course of their work, helped to lead the societal
transformation that is producing dramatically better outcomes
and higher expectations for the diverse groups that make up the
disability community in the United States and around the world.
Typically, one outstanding living individual is selected each
year to receive The Henry B. Betts Award with an unrestricted
