For some disabled Ukrainian refugees, even making it to the border doesn't guarantee escape.
Anna Landre, who acts as the partnership’s focal point in Ukraine, says the group is trying to field calls and texts from refugees with disabilities but can’t keep up with the amount of requests. Many can’t access the transportation, housing or support they need to get out of Ukraine. Even if they successfully get out, they need a place to go.
Nikulinis and his partner are currently hiding in a neighboring city, Uzhorod, where he said the situation is a"little bit dangerous for us, because we heard that now police catch men on the street and forcibly taken into the army — we don't going outside from today.” They are waiting to be part of an Amnesty International convoy to Slovakia and were told their case was transmitted to a lawyer from the European Parliament but have yet to hear back.
He says donations to disability rights groups in Ukraine and those in neighboring countries can go a long way to help those trapped inside this conflict. “People can help by being more proactive for those who are most in need,” Pineda said. “I think it's important to focus on women and children but there are a lot of organizations that are helping in this regard. Often older people and people with disabilities are not tended to and don’t have the support in place.
