...that in the course of human history, the majority of persons with disabilities have been prone to live their lives demoralized,  in  poverty, and far short of  what would ordinarily be considered to be an acceptable quality of life.  And in order to access the accommodations they require, they are  often relegated to a life of submission and dependence, underscored by charity and social services infiltrated and tempered with political correctness. 

...that 500 million people on earth  today are now seen to be disabled.   By 2024 it is estimated that as much as 40% of North Americans will be seen as disabled. In Canada  that amounts  to about 3.6 million persons, not to mention that the likelihood of becoming disabled  naturally increases in the course of aging. 

...that persons with disabilities are becoming  increasingly concerned and despondent with the lack of effectiveness in society’s  responses to accommodate their circumstances and needs.  

Persons with disabilities deserve to be afforded better recognition and status in society.

These are just a few  reasons why...
