People with Disabilities Still Discriminated

“Due to their disabilities, we deliberately guide them (the disabilities) to entrepreneurship. But, it is also possible to distribute them to companies (that need their skills),” she stated, Wednesday (12/3).

While for people with disability who live in a very poor condition, North Jakarta Social Sub-Department also gives guide aside skill training. Their development is monitored routinely every month and they are also given additional nutrition.
