Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: The victimization of individuals with disabilities began receiving national attention in 1990 under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The ADA outlined the requirements for the criminal justice system and for private, non profit victim service providers. More recently the Violence Against Women Act 2 also included requirements for providing services to victims with disabilities of all types. This presentation will review the criminal justice response to the rape of persons with intellectual disabilities since the passage of ADA, describe an ecological model of the barriers faced by these victims and outline the victim service response. The presentation will conclude with a summary of "future directions" for criminal justice and victim services obtained from current empirical works.
