These publications are designed to address the issues of health, adult development and aging among persons with intellectual disabilities.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003ePhysical health considerations of persons with an intellectual disability are attracting attention within the contexts of human rights, public health, and health promotion. Research has shown that the prevalence of certain conditions and diseases is much higher in adults with an intellectual disability than in the general population.
