Intellectual impairment is a condition that affects a person’s daily social and practical abilities due to limits in intellectual functioning and adaptive behavior. These restrictions show up throughout the formative years and can have an impact on learning, solving problems, and leading an autonomous life. There are several different variables that might contribute to intellectual impairment, including chemicals exposed during pregnancy, problems after birthing, and hereditary factors.
Help and assistance are essential for improving the lives of people with intellectual disability. In order to meet particular requirements and promote independence and social integration, specialized education, therapy, and community services are provided. Dismantling obstacles and lessening the stigma attached to intellectual impairment can be achieved by putting an emphasis on inclusion and advocating for a society that accepts people with different abilities. We may build an inclusive atmosphere that values the special talents and difficulties faced by people with intellectual impairments by adopting a person-centered approach.
