6. Outcomes People with disabilities understood as being under higher risk of mental diseases then rest of population One of the main problems is lower accessibility of mental health care – mentioned across the world (New Zealand, USA, Europe) Specify of communication – technical development allows different technical solutions and on-line services More publication on hearing impairment: Question is, if there is more risk in this group or if this group is more initiative? Few research on disabled with disaster experience. More trauma research in the field of experience of violence (crime, home violence)
