World War II and the subsequent increase in soldiers with disabilities returning home set the stage for the rapid expansion of special education services in the United States. The Rehabilitation Act of 1943 and the Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1944 were enacted to provide vocational training and rehabilitation services to wounded veterans, many of whom had disabilities. These federal programs inspired the development of similar programs for non-veterans with disabilities, including special education programs in public schools.
