Anymore as long as you have a degree you are more desireable than if you don't. It really seems like, unless you want to be a doctor, lawyer, or teacher, specialized degrees aren't that important. I have a degree in English and Professional Writing and I'm paying the bills as a graphic artist for a screen printer, simply because I took some graphics classes as part of my minor. I'm working in my major as a freelance writer but it doesn't pay the bills.
Really, what you've got there, in the way of credentials, sounds pretty employable to me. Especially with the background in special education and disability services. Maybe working in the disabilities office at your college or another would be something you would enjoy. Everything from facilitating tests to learning about new technology to help disabled students (reader programs for the blind, etc.).
Good luck and I hope it all turns out well for you.
