Special populations

Special populations refer to groups of people who may have unique needs or challenges that differ from the general population. This can include individuals with disabilities, the elderly, pregnant women, children, racial and ethnic minorities, LGBTQ+ individuals, and those with chronic illnesses. These groups often require tailored approaches in various fields like healthcare, education, and social services to ensure they receive equitable support and opportunities. Understanding their specific circumstances helps professionals provide better services and create inclusive environments that address their distinct needs.
