This qualitative case study tried to explore people with physical disabilities’ beliefs about literacy skills’ contributions to their livelihood and how these determine the commitment to pursuing literacy skills. To gather data, semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions were used. The study’s findings indicated that respondents believed literacy skills could potentially improve their livelihood. As a result of their beliefs, their strive to become literate was imperative. |
