You can reach out to u/ocherthulu on Reddit, and in addition to offering his own insights, he can refer you to colleagues at RIT and elsewhere. His comment here (link) might be a good starting point.

 

The link in the above comment goes to the Disability Rights Education & Defense Fund (link), and they should be able to provide you with some policy insights.

 


The Autism Self-Advocacy Network (link) also offers guidelines for policy makers and can refer you to experts with relevant knowledge and experience.

 

You may also benefit from the insights offered by Administration for Community Living's (link) public affairs officers. You should get in contact with them.

 

The link on Medicare is an essay by Andrea Louise Campbell at MIT (link), so that may be another place to look for good public policy research.

 

Of course, there are disabled people in your local community who should be at the forefront of any policy discussion, but these are good resources for giving you some background in the policy conversation so you have some grounding to prepare for meeting with them.
