Generally, People Living with Disabilities are vulnerable by virtue of their impairment and negative societal attitudes arising from fear, ignorance, superstitions, neglect and lack of awareness.

As a result, People Living with Disabilities have inadequate access to services, information, resources as well as limited participation in the socio-economic development process.  Consequently, the majority depend on their families and communities for survival. However, the socio-economic situation of most Persons Living with Disabilities is still characterized by abject poverty.

With 60% of their population living in poverty, People Living with Disabilities are over represented among the 38% of Ugandan population affected by poverty.
