The difficulty for most people with learning disabilities is that they are unable to
find reliable people and services to assist them with their daily living needs and quality of
life. This study has the possibility of taking on a special significance as the baby boomers
are reaching an age where medical concerns are increasing and veterans are returning
from war with disabilities such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Brain Injuries, and
depression. It is imperative that our society develops widespread compassion and
understanding towards others. The belief that people with disabilities are not capable of
being professionals needs to be drastically challenged. The PHPs in this study have
demonstrated that they can be employable professionals who have an important impact
on other people’s lives. Just because people with learning disabilities may not
comprehend, process, speak, read, write, remember, or organize in the same manner as
people without disabilities does not mean they cannot be efficient in running an office, a
business, or be successful in their lives. Creating a just society for people with learning
disabilities requires lot of work, but there are feasible models and options for making this
happen. Each and every institution needs to take the needs of people with learning
disabilities into consideration. Taking steps towards liberation for one can end in
liberation for all.
