Traditional Research Barriers

Limited Reach

Most research struggles to recruit participants with disabilities, often resulting in biased samples that don't represent the true range of a disability population.

Accessibility Barriers

Traditional research tools and methodologies are often inaccessible, making it difficult for people with disabilities to participate in studies that directly affect them.

Stereotypes

User research engagement traditionally overlooks individuals with disabilities, or they're often studied in isolation based on the presence of a particular trait.

Cost

Participant recruitment through traditional channels can be extremely costly, cutting into research budgets and limiting studies involving people with disabilities.

How ARP Works

Diverse Community

Access a pre-verified, research-ready pool of individuals with disabilities, families and caregivers, and allies — eliminating recruitment barriers.
