Disabled people: professional opportunities as a determinant of social independence

Abstract

The issues of the real situation of the social group of disabled people in the process of integration in the Russian transforming society are considered. The article analyzes the socio-legal problems of disabled people, which create restrictions on their professional self-realization, as a result of which they are deprived of social recognition. The possibilities of changing the social status of poorly resourced population groups are analyzed on the example of successful overcoming of social exclusion by people with disabilities, as well as the difficulties they face in the process of integration. Connections between motivating factors of achievement of the set goals and results of the success achieved by them are revealed.
