A disability is any condition of the body or mind that makes it more difficult for the person with the condition to do certain activities and interact with the world around them.
There are many types of disabilities. Some examples of common disabilities you may find are:
Although “people with disabilities” sometimes refers to a single population, this is actually a diverse group of people with a wide range of needs. Two people with the same type of disability can be affected in very different ways. Some disabilities may be hidden or not easy to see. As a rule, DO NOT ask the person how they got the disability.

It includes twenty-three unit studies covering a wide range of topics. Each unit has introductory text, which will give the student basic background information about the topic at hand.
