Mental Health Care
Today is the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, a day when we acknowledge individuals of varying levels of ability. Did you know that people with disabilities are more likely to experience mental health issues than able-bodied adults?
Many people with disabilities face additional stressors that able-bodied people do not, such as limited physical access to public spaces or microaggressions from other individuals in the community. They may also have social-emotional disabilities that increase the likelihood of their experiencing mental distress.
