International Day of Disabled Persons Marked Today
The International Day of Disabled Persons is being observed today. The UN created the day in 1992 to promote the benefits everyone can gain from including people with disabilities.
Christyne Allain, of the Premier's Council on the Status of Disabled Persons, said in a statement that integrating people with disabilities into mainstream society is important to our political, social, economic, and cultural life.
While a lot of progress has been made, says Allain, there's still a gap between policy and practice that must be addressed.
The slogan chosen this year by the United Nations is, "Together for a better world for all: including persons with disabilities in development."
