This study compared the network of rehabilitation for the disabled during the Roh, Moo-hyun administration and the Lee, Myung-bak administration. Through such effort, how the public social activity related to rehabilitation for the disabled has changed through time was observed and the future network level of rehabilitation for the disabled was considered. The analysis was conducted using the social network analysis method and it was found that the Roh, Moo-hyun administration’s network showed better network density and centrality level compared to the Lee, Myung-bak administration, and also showed better balance between the government and the private sectors. Based on such results, this study was concluded by suggesting a community where the government and private sectors can regulate the network level together on the same grounds.
