with disabilities Is it possible for people with disabilities to overcome prejudices in society, and to become successful?
Sometimes, it is easy for people - even people with disabilities - to be lulled into believing that disability is a virtually impenetrable barrier to success.

What's more, for everyone
listed as "famous", there are thousands -
millions, even - of people with disabilities who are quite competent in
the jobs we do. Indeed, some who have not become famous are not
necessarily inferior to those who have - for examples in the musical
world, check out our Tribute
to Stream Records.
Besides,
our value as people is not limited to the economic wealth which we
produce. Every human, whether disabled or not, is a unique and valuable
individual. Parents, children, carers , volunteers and amateurs (ie
unpaid enthusiasts) are not paid for the work they do,
but that certainly doesn't mean they are of no value to society!
