In war situations, such as in Ukraine, no one is spared. But what is the impact of war on people with (intellectual) disabilities and their loved ones? New research paints a worrisome picture. People with intellectual disabilities in Ukraine suffer even more than other residents from lack of access to basic needs such as food, water and medicine. Moreover, many shelters are not optimally accessible and escape is often not possible. Finally, there are concerns among this group for their future after the war, for example, fear of returning to large-scale mental institutions.
