<p>In partnership with <a href="https://www.myg.org.sg/" target="_blank">MINDS MYG</a>, this episode introduces the important People with Intellectual Disabilities (PWID) community in Singapore. We hear from Jessica (not her real name), a caregiver and volunteer about her experience directly, and as you can imagine from previous SGExplained episodes, this gets inspirational very quickly. In this episode, you can look forward to:&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li>Getting a more specific definition of what Intellectual Disabilities entail&nbsp;</li> <li>Debunk myths about PWIDs e.g. whether autism and intellectual disability are the same&nbsp;</li> <li>Learn about how caregivers can also practice self-care as they support PWIDs&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p>You can volunteer by signing up on the <a href="https://www.myg.org.sg/" target="_blank">MINDS MYG homepage here.&nbsp;</a></p> <p>___</p> <p><strong>&nbsp;Intro Music: </strong>From Pixabay; Outro Music: Nielizas from Pixabay;&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Images</strong> used in Cover Image and Marketing Collateral are provided courtesy of MINDS MYG.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Sources:&nbsp;</strong></p> <ul> <li><a href="https://acc.edu.sg/en/developmental-disabilities-myths-vs-facts/" target="_blank">Developmental Disabilities – Myths vs. Facts&nbsp;</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.myg.org.sg/intellectually-disable" target="_blank">What is Intellectual Disability?</a></li> </ul>
