    Journal Article

    This article considers some of the challenges met by aging persons with intellectual disabilities that have been pointed out by the international scientific and professional community during the last 20 years. There is a lack of studies and literature on this topic in Croatia, despite the great need to provide adequate support services for elder people with intellectual disabilities. The population of elderly persons with typical development has been increasing in developed countries, and the life expectancies of people with disabilities in developing countries have grown in parallel with those of persons with typical development.
