  • integration into society, regardless of the disease, the ability to move;

That is why the legislator not only determines the possibility of obtaining education in a college / technical school, but also offers various options for implementing these measures in practice, placing the very process of ensuring the right to education on the authorities local government, showing them only the scope of action. At the same time, at the federal level, there are also various kinds of letters and explanations on specific issues and difficulties in organizing the educational process; for example, Letter of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia dated January 14, 2016 No. 07-81, which clarifies the possibility of assigning compensation to parents by the LSG body when a child receives education at home, letter of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia dated December 22, 2017 No. 06-2023, which defines guidelines organization educational process for the disabled under the programs of secondary vocational education.

About 1.2 million Muscovites are people with disabilities. On the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we tell where to go to study, where to look for a job and what other types of assistance exist in the city.

Disability is a complex concept that has medical, social and legal aspects. It can be congenital or acquired - due to severe injury or accident, temporary or permanent. According to one definition, a disabled person is a person whose capabilities are limited due to physical, sensory, mental or mental impairments.

Now about 1.2 million people with disabilities live in Moscow. The total number of disabled people registered with the dispensary is 878,774 people, of which 852,690 are of working age, and 26,084 children.

Disability often becomes a barrier between the individual and society. We are talking not only about physical obstacles, psychological, economic and other obstacles are no less terrible. A person narrows his social circle, there are fewer abilities for study, work, travel - everything that is available to other people.

At the same time, each of us has abilities or talents that often do not depend on our physical abilities. To develop them, only suitable conditions are needed.

Thus, disability is a problem not only for the person himself, but also forsociety. In 2012, Russia ratified the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and is taking steps to implement it. Its main purpose is to promote, protect and ensure the full and equal enjoyment by all persons with disabilities of all human rights and fundamental freedoms, and to promote respect for their inherent dignity.

Within the framework of the state program "Social support for residents of the city of Moscow for 2012-2018", a subprogram "Social integration of the disabled and the formation of a barrier-free environment for the disabled and other people with limited mobility" operates in the capital.


The right to work and the championship of professional skills

Despite limited health opportunities, many are able and willing to work. Helps with this. For 10 months of this year, more than 2,200 Muscovites with disabilities applied here, more than half of them got a job. They also have career guidance classes, training courses, psychological consultations and lectures where you can learn how to start your own business.

In November, the job bank of the employment service had about 900 offers for the disabled. The average salary for working professions is almost 30 thousand rubles, for employees - about 40 thousand rubles.

The Department of Labor and Social Protection of the Population of the City of Moscow not only monitors the employment of disabled people, but also controls enterprises that allocate appropriate jobs.

The 2nd Abilympics National Championship of professional skill competitions among people with disabilities, held in Moscow on November 18-19, allows us to appreciate the high competence and diligence of the participants. This is a kind of labor Olympiad organized within the framework of the Abilympics international competitions, which have been held in many countries of the world since 1972. By showing what heights of skill can be achieved, disabled people set an example for others and inspire genuine respect. One list of professions is worth something - from woodcarving, cooking and hairdressing to floristry, jewelry, art, landscape and computer design.

This year the championship was attended by more than five thousand people, about 500 people from 63 regions of Russia became direct participants. Among the winners of Abilympics are 45 representatives of the Moscow region, including 26 schoolchildren. In addition, a job fair was held at the championship, where about 8,500 proposals were presented. Applicants were assisted in compiling and posting resumes in data banks, provided advice on working conditions and vocational training.

Where to go to study?

Eight rehabilitation and educational institutions operate in Moscow, where favorable conditions have been created for the education and upbringing of citizens with disabilities. Their main audience is children from three years old and young people, but there are also special projects for middle-aged people (up to 45 years old). Now more than two thousand disabled children are studying in them, including more than 300 under vocational training programs.

In addition, early intervention methods are being introduced: children from one year of age who have developmental disabilities are provided with comprehensive assistance to prevent disability or minimize possible consequences for health. Parents and close relatives become active participants in the programs.

One of the most popular centers for vocational rehabilitation is "Crafts" in Zelenograd. Pottery, woodworking, textile and printing workshops conduct individual and group classes for disabled people aged 14 to 45, there are also groups early development(from three years old), summer camps for children and other areas. In 2016, more than 1,500 people used the services of the center.

The Scientific and Practical Rehabilitation Center also provides training in popular creative and technical specialties - painting, design, landscape construction, publishing, document management, economics, law, and so on. More than 300 people study here this year.

All types of assistance: rest and treatment, sports and education

Rehabilitation of disabled people includes psychological, medical and legal assistance, career guidance and training in popular specialties, physical education, sports and different kinds therapy. There are more than 100 state institutions involved in rehabilitation in Moscow, mainly on the basis of territorial social service centers. According to the results of the first three quarters of this year, more than 41,000 people used their services. It is planned that more than 55,000 Muscovites with disabilities will undergo comprehensive rehabilitation by the end of the year. The latest technologies are used in the Scientific and Practical Center for Medical and Social Rehabilitation of the Disabled named after L.I. Shvetsova and rehabilitation center "Tekstilshchiki".

On the basis of existing institutions, multidisciplinary complexes are being created, in which modern programs and methods are used. One of these centers is planned to open next year in Butovo (Polyany Street, 42): the premises are being renovated, the necessary equipment is being purchased and staff is being trained.

Comprehensive rehabilitation services are also provided by non-governmental centers: the Rehabilitation Center for the Disabled "Overcoming", the Marfo-Mariinsky Medical Center "Mercy", the Research and Production Center "Spark", the rehabilitation center "Three Sisters", the Russian Rehabilitation Center "Childhood" and others.

In addition, unique techniques are used, such as hippotherapy - therapeutic riding - and canistherapy, when a positive effect is achieved through communication with specially trained dogs.

A program is being developed for the rehabilitation of disabled children and young disabled people in health resorts in the Moscow region, central Russia, the Krasnodar Territory, the North Caucasus and the Crimea.
