People with disabilities are more vulnerable to violence when compared to their non-disabled peers. The purpose of this study was to analyze report data of violence against people with disabilities available by Human Rights Hotline (Disque 100). Data source was the Human Rights Hotline's (Disque 100) Annual Balance of 2017- People with Disabilities, and the data analyzed  regarding type of aggression (frequency, type of violation and location); characteristics of the victim (disability, ethnicity, age and sex) and aggressors (relationship to victim, age, sex and ethnicity); and who was the whistleblower. There was a considerable number of complaints between 2011 and 2017 (M = 8800, SD = 2879), with the majority of cases (35.8%) being negligence (abandonment, food, shelter, hygiene, medicines / health care). Violations occurred mostly at home (85.6%) and the victims were mostly women (52.8%), brown (29.7%), aged between 18 and 50 years (76.9%), and presented intellectual disability (65.8%). The majority of perpetrators were family members (57.1%), men (57.6%), aged 18-50 years (39.6%). Such a framework points the necessity of actions to prevent violence against people with disabilities.
