Disabled people face difficulties in meeting their living and educational needs. Approximately 10% of the global population and 5% of Indonesia have disabilities, but the effectiveness of zakat in reducing poverty in Indonesia is still limited. Development of human resources with disabilities is hampered by lack of access, support and discrimination. Quantitative research is descriptive, with a correlational approach. The results of this research show that (1) The utilization of zakat through the Empowered Disability program has succeeded in increasing economic independence and management skills, as well as contributing to community welfare. (2) The utilization of zakat has a significant relationship with the development of human resources in the Empowered Disability program. A very low significance value (<0.001) and a correlation coefficient of 0.884 indicate a strong relationship with human resource development.
