Despite legislative advances in the rights of people with disabilities, there is still a need to guarantee access to physical rehabilitation services and assistive technology resources. There is an immense difficulty in integrating theory and practice in relation to the care of children with disabilities, including those with a diagnosis of Limbs Agenesis, which is still unknown in society in general. Thus, currently, the right to treatment and rehabilitation of children with disabilities is not guaranteed in its entirety, since the lack of vacancies or negligence in the provision of specialized services in public health violates the right of people with disabilities to enjoy care. Thus, it is necessary to observe specific guarantees that provide children and adolescents with disabilities with the same opportunities and effectively promote equality, not only in the normative sphere, but mainly in social life, as proposed by the Reference Center Project for Rehabilitation and Assistive Technology.
