The Minnesota Governor's Council on Developmental Disabilities is pleased to announce the results from a baseline study of intersectionality and the promise of One Minnesota. This survey was completed in September 2023 and included a total of 593 respondents divided into four groups by race and ethnicity and disability status. Individuals with disabilities from racial and ethnic communities are more likely to report negative experiences in public situations; are less likely than all other groups to feel welcomed in public serving businesses; and more likely to experience negative treatment in financial dealings. White individuals with disabilities are most likely to feel unfair treatment, barriers, and restrictions from privileges; are more likely to report negative experiences in dealing with healthcare and health insurance; and give the lowest rating to the One Minnesota promise of any group. https://mn.gov/mnddc/extra/customer-research.html
