The government organization responsible for helping disabled individuals is the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labour (MoSAL).[22] MoSAL also has a Disability Fund (DF).[23] Yemen is one of the countries who has ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.[24] The Social Fund for Development (SFD) is a social safety net created in 1997 which targets at-risk people in Yemen, including people with disabilities.[23] In 2008, the SFD supported programs for 1,083 children with disabilities.[25] The government of Yemen, in 2007, created a National Disability Strategy which "outlines the vision, objectives and principles of a 'rights-based' approach to disability for Yemen."[26]
