Question

Consider why persons with disabilities are considered a vulnerable population. Share with others experiences you may have had with individuals born with a physical ailment, children or adults with cognitive delays, people who may have suffered traumatic brain injury (i.e., possibly due to an accident, effects from war, etc.). What have you learned about challenges that impact their lives, that you may not have considered without this personal experience? Research programs that exist (America, or globally) to better integrate persons with disabilities into society and mitigate the disparities they face. Develop your own list of opportunities/programs/activities that can better support people with various disabilities. Consider the micro and macro approach to your thinking, and develop at least one idea per level. Why do you feel these may be viable solutions? What may be some of the barriers that these ideas face

Answer 1

Answer: People with disabilities are considered a vulnerable populations as they not have healthy status. They suffers from the many problems such as they are unable to get jobs easily, they are uninsured etc.

Many people lost their hands or legs in the accidents whereas some of them are incapable since birth due to the deformity in the fetus. These people are not treated well by the society and also most of them are unable to achieve proper jobs or fundings.

There should be special quota for the people who are suffering from disablities. They should also get employment so as to earn money. This will cause the upliftment of the socio-economic status and hence they can live life more peacefully.
