The twist? The student is white, and her school is private.

The results? Rideshare access leads to: ↑ employment, ↑ labor force participation, ↓ public assistance, and ↑ marriage among disabled adults. Effects are largest for those with vision/hearing or mobility disabilities & in areas with worse public transit quality. 3/6
