O Practical Guide: The Rights of Persons with Disabilities in Portugal is a Simplex+ measure that gathers information from various areas of interest and respective public services in Portugal, aiming to promote the autonomy and citizenship of people with disabilities and facilitate decision-making and the promotion of inclusion.

This Guide provides information on social support, employment support measures and vocational training, social and tax benefits and practical information on the Inclusion Points network or on how to apply for a Multipurpose Medical Disability Certificate.

This Guide is also a training tool, as it clarifies the correct terminologies to be adopted, helping to support persons with disabilities in realising their rights and in signalling practices of discrimination on the grounds of disability.
