Abstract
The young population with productive capabilities, however, is not entirely able to be productive due to disabilities. The research indicates that young individuals in urban areas such as Demak Regency, Semarang Regency, Semarang City, and Boyolali Regency lead dynamic lives rather than static ones. A significant portion of these urban young individuals with disabilities strive independently to survive. They form groups, start home businesses, and even access government assistance facilities. Most of them come from families with lower to middle socio-economic backgrounds. Conversely, young individuals with disabilities in Semarang City come from middle to upper-class families. The research methodology adopts an advocacy approach, where researchers track disability cases in the four locations using the Central Java Poor Family Identification (BDT Keluarga Miskin Jawa Tengah), encompassing young individuals with disabilities in industrial and suburban areas.
