Disability is a common phenomenon globally, an experience that comes with many challenges and stress. This study focused on culture's role in the well-being and education of children with disabilities within a Nigerian cultural context. The specific problem this study addressed is that the well-being and education of children with disabilities within a Nigerian cultural context are ignored to the children's detriment due to societal views on disability. Coping with a disability is complex and even more challenging when living in mid to low-income countries like Nigeria. This qualitative phenomenological study aims to explore the culture's role in the well-being of children with disabilities and their families in Nigeria. In Nigeria, people's attitudes and perceptions toward disability have been a growing concern, contributing to how the people of Nigeria treat children with disabilities. Qualitative phenomenological research was conducted to address the research questions for this study. The guiding conceptual framework of this study combined Vygotsky's sociocultural theory of cognitive development and Bronfenbrenner's theory of human development. A sample of 10 Nigerian parents who have children with disabilities residing in the United States participated in the study through Zoom. A semi-structured interview provided questions to the participants that yielded rich information based on their lived experiences of raising their special needs children in a Nigerian cultural context. Data analysis was completed using thematic analysis techniques. The findings from this study, along with multiple sources of literature review, revealed that the traditional and cultural beliefs of the people of Nigeria influence and shape people's negative attitudes toward the well-being and education of children with disability.
