MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS

PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES HAVE HISTORICALLY BEEN ISOLATED
DUE TO IGNORANCE, NEGLECT, SUPERSTITION, AND FEAR (UNITED NATIONS).
DISABILITY RIGHTS WERE FIRST FRAMED AS A HUMAN RIGHTS ISSUE IN THE LEGAL LITERATURE IN THE EARLY NINETIES.

ALTHOUGH LEGAL PROTECTIONS AND INITIATIVES HAVE
BEEN PUT IN PLACE TO ENSURE EQUAL RIGHTS FOR
PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES,
LARGE GAPS REMAIN.
