Defining Disability

People with disabilities are individuals who exhibit differences in mental, physical, sensory, behavioral, or linguistic abilities that set them apart from the general population. These differences create a need for specialized programs, devices, modifications, and support services to help them live with dignity and independence.

  • Inherited genetic disorders or those triggered by external factors

  • Chronic conditions such as muscular and joint diseases, heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, and nervous system disorders that may lead to disability if left untreated

Rights and Support
