Today ENIL met @euanacarlapereira.bsky.social (DG Justice) 🇪🇺
Among many things, we discussed the need for real #PersonalAssistance, inclusive labour markets, affordable housing & adoption of the Equal Treatment Directive—key to advancing #IndependentLiving in Europe.
myth or reality?
Personal Assistance is only for basic daily needs? This is a myth.
Reality is that a personal assistant can support almost any task a disabled person wants to do.
Work, social life, hobbies, relationships, travel – #PersonalAssistance is a key tool for #IndependentLiving
It doesn’t mean just surviving — it means having the same choices, opportunities, and freedom in daily life as non-disabled people.
