Treating People with
Disabilities: Equality and
Inclusion
Introduction
The treatment of people with disabilities
has been a topic of ongoing debate and
advocacy. While progress has been made,
there is still room for improvement. This
essay argues that people with special needs
(disabilities) should be treated the same
way as people without any special needs. By
examining the principles of equal rights,
educational equality, and social integration,
we can understand why this approach is
ENG1503 essential.

high school to college is challenging for students without disabilities. Students with
disabilities often get overlooked by their institution and overwhelmed during this
transition, contributing to an achievement gap for these students.
