These statements of hope and achievements were supporting more than 7，500 athletes that participated in this year's events—with the most representation from China, over 1,200 【4】! Although these hopeful words were positive and encouraging, many mentally challenged 【5】 were not getting the rare they required.

In many countries, disabled people are neglected and not properly cared for. However, events such as the Special Olympics are raising the 【6】 of mistreatment and lack of care. In the United States, for example, special training centers and homes exist that help the mentally challenged find jobs in ) 【7】 communities.
