2. Developmental Disabilities and Learning Challenges

Developmental disabilities are conditions that affect physical, learning, language, or behavior skills and often appear during early childhood. They can impact how individuals communicate, learn, and interact with others. Learning challenges, on the other hand, specifically refer to difficulties in processing information, which can affect the ability to read, write, or work with numbers. Both can vary widely in severity and can coexist. Understanding these challenges is essential for providing appropriate support, enabling individuals to thrive in educational and social environments, and fostering inclusion in society.
