Uruguay's disability care program faces criticism from Human Rights Watch for inadequate support and exclusion.

Uruguay's Personal Assistants Program, part of its national care system for people with disabilities, is facing criticism from Human Rights Watch for inadequate support. Age limits, income restrictions, and insufficient hours hinder access to essential care for independent living. The report highlights the exclusion of certain disability types and calls for greater involvement of disability organizations in program oversight. It urges the government to expand services to ensure all individuals with disabilities receive necessary assistance.
