Abstrakt: | This paper is a hermeneutic analysis of selected academic publications. This
paper examines a number of issues related to undertaking social roles by adults
with disabilities and the problem of their postponed transition to adulthood,
restricting or delaying developmental tasks typical of adulthood, which has
negative implications and may exacerbate disability. Support provided by various
entities and institutions may reduce existing barriers and enhance their
social integration. Both positive and negative effects of using social support
by people with disabilities have been pointed out. Sources of social support
have been listed along with their specifics. The analysis included the disabled
person’s gender, as it determines the nature of support and its reception. Finally,
the need for personalised support was emphasised along with risks resulting
from institutional discrimination. The role of local community was highlighted
as it corresponds to the concept of community-based support and the need to
promote various initiatives aimed at integration and normalisation of life for
people with disabilities. |
