This article focused the problems and challenges faced by children with disabilities in
Pakistan that hampers the integration of such children into the mainstream society.
Since the study had primarily been exploratory in nature, an exploratory-sequential
method or analysis was employed with a qualitative research design. With the
application of this methodical procedure, various themes of the problems had charted
out, that were further studied through data from the field. The data was collected from
25 respondents through in-depth interviews. The study finds that disability as a social
stigma, attitudinal and physical barriers such as indifference towards disabled and
mobility problems, poverty and lack of special education for disable children had
existed as well as contributed in worsening the lots of disabled children. The study
concludes that children with disabilities cannot be integrated in the main stream of
society until and unless their psycho-social problems are addressed. The study
recommends that the government should address the needs and problems of these
children on priority basis and adopt measures for their rehabilitation. In addition, the
non-governmental organizations, civil society and the donors‟ organizations should also
come forward and help the government in the rehabilitation of these vulnerable
children.
