Look around your community. Are you aware of their presence? Are they merely present or meaningfully included?
Our work in this area focuses on people with learning difficulties e.g. those with autism, Down Syndrome and developmental delays. It involves a wide range of educational/training and support services for children and young adults with learning difficulties and their families towards meaningful participation in the society.
Children Service
Early Intervention Support is an early detection of children with special needs among the children in the preschool is also one of our objectives that would enable the child to receive early intervention as early as possible.
Preschool Inclusive Education is an initiative to Break Barriers & Build Bridges. It started in 2009 working with a local kindergarten, had allowed access for young children with special needs from ages 2 to 5 to learn to together with the typical developing children in preschool. We aim to promote inclusive learning and development of children with special needs with their typical developing peers.
Adults Services & Job Coach
Our job coaches provide regular to intensive support to young adults with learning disabilities to ensure sustainable employment. We also provide employers with training to raise awareness of the impact of disability and to promote positive and effective strategies to get the best from their employee with learning disabilities.
Training & Disability Awareness
We regularly conduct trainings for teachers and parents, as well as disability awareness at colleges/universities and churches to promote inclusion of people with disabilities in the society.
Family Resource & Support Services
Services include toy libraries, referral services and parent support groups. We are operating one such centre at our Head Office and have helped partners to set-up toy libraries.
