Support for Physically Challenged
Understanding Disability
Disability is a term covering impairments, activity limitations and participation restrictions. Impairment is a problem in body function/structure; an activity limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing activity. Disability is a complex phenomenon reflecting an interaction between features of a person's body and features of a society in which he or she lives.
