Reich Association of the Physically Disabled

During the Nazi era, people with physical disabilities came together in the Reich Association of the Physically Disabled. One of the most important goals of the federal government was to prove that physically disabled people also belonged to the national community by providing economic added value as “national comrades” and not being dependent on social welfare.
