The People's Party of Sabadell held a roundtable discussion this Saturday, February 14th, at the Creu Alta Civic Center to analyze challenges faced by people with disabilities.

Party spokesperson Cuca Santos described disability and mental health as the 'true pandemic of the 21st century.' She criticized the current Sabadell municipal plan for being a mere 'piece of paper' without the necessary financial backing to implement real changes.

"When a diagnosis arrives, families don't know where to go, and it shouldn't be non-profit associations providing the only answers."
