Returned migrant farmers disabled by work injury are a special vulnerable group. Employing a SAFE framework and a qualitative research approach with a face-to-face,semi-structured,in-depth interview method collecting a sample of 21 returned migrants,this paper depicts and analyzes their living conditions as well as risk factors to their survival and development. The results show that they are trapped in vulnerability because of work injury,handicap,and rural household registration identity. They are forced to return,and further encountered inadequate medical services,limited social networks and support,and helpless financial situation. They are trapped in invisible poverty and isolation due to their migrant identity and physical handicap. The social policy and service,basic,integrated and family-centered,should be developed to meet their needs and settle down the problem and case management would be the helpful policy measure.
