3. Work is fundamental to our lives. It means so much more than a paycheck –
it offers purpose and the opportunity to lead an independent, self-directed life
for all people, including people with disabilities.
People with disabilities have the skills to pursue meaningful careers and play an
important role in India’s educational and economic success. In fact, experience
with disability can offer a competitive edge when it comes to work. If you are a
person with a disability, only you can define your own limitations. High
expectations are essential to success. Organizations exist that can help you seek
employment, identify the tools you need to be productive on the job, and
understand your right to be evaluated on your ability, not disability. Because after
all, at work it’s what people can do that matters.
Dharmendra Kumar,
Chairman
