A. Not everyone discloses his or her disability in a cover letter. Sometimes, it is better to disclose during the interview so the employer has the chance to meet you personally. This gives you the opportunity to talk about your disability while relaying all your abilities related to the job. In some cases, where it is an equal employment opportunity, it may be in your best interest to disclose in the cover letter as the employer is open to hiring persons with disabilities and may select those who self identify.
