This research aims to identify the aspects that support the family dimension as a determinant of the entrepreneurship of disabled people. The hypothesis determines that the family institution maintains an ambivalent relationship with the entrepreneurship of disabled people. Through a qualitative methodology, it has been concluded that family attitude is the most crucial aspect of the family dimension. Depending on the family model (overprotective, protective, tutored autonomy and emancipatory) the attitude can impede or foster entrepreneurship. On the other hand, the economic or emotional support that maintains a causal relationship with the family attitude and the entrepreneurship of disabled people. Thus, the existence of economic, educational and emotional support fosters a family attitude that enhances entrepreneurship. Some measures to suggest for the development of a family attitude that fosters the entrepreneurship are the next: support of administration, development of specific education and execution of sensitivity campaigns.

Keywords : Entrepreneurship; disability; family; economy-financing; emotional state; labor market.
