School Program
This is the program which the organization is already running. As, Cerebral Palsy is a severely disabling condition, Problems of accessibility and mobility, poor motor control and hand function, disability in speech and language makes it impossible for a CP child to attend a regular school. Besides education, these children need therapy, use of specialized aids for mobility, specialized seating, training in activities of daily living, and speech therapy. In short, a special environment is mandatory for them which is not available in a regular school environment. Hence, there is a need for a special school with specially qualified teachers and therapists for their rehabilitation and education. However, it will be the aim of this program to try and put the more able CP child back into mainstream education eventually. This program also provides special vocational training depending on the abilities of the child so that they will be able to be gainfully employed later in life, either in open employment or in a sheltered workshop. The social workers attached to the program will source for suitable jobs upon the guidance of the therapists. The CP child in the school going age of 4 years to 16 years will be included in this program.
This program still requires the extended help of Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Speech Therapists, Special Educators, Social Workers and Vocational Trainers, non-professional staff like drivers, aides, office assistants and caregivers.
We are very badly in need of funds for the day to day running of the Sneha Kiran Centre. This year we have 54 children who attend classes regularly. We will be very grateful to you if you can kindly help us financially by a generous contribution.
It will cost about Rs.50, 000/- for one child to cover the entire year’s cost.
