Mainstreaming the disabled into critical areas such as employment, education, livelihood and barrier-free access remains lacking.

This paper examines the possibilities to improve the living condition of the persons with disabilities by providing livelihood oppurtunities & trainings through intervention programmes. The programmes enabled the participants to enhance their livelihood through the income generation activities. The results of the study reveal that, there is a remarkable improvement in promotion of rights and livelihood of Persons with Disabilities through Community based Rehabilitation. | ||
