Poverty increases the risk of disability. Persons with disabilities may be at risk of poverty due to a lack of access to education opportunities, healthcare needs, and employment. It has a negative impact on their living conditions. Children, girls, youth, and women with disabilities are the most marginalized and excluded groups in our communities. Because they lack access to essential services, persons with disabilities do not fully participate in their communities' development.
