AID Disable Children Rehabilitation program-DCRP

About more than 10% of the population in Bangladesh are either physically or mentally disabled and some of the cases are combination of these two. Anybody may be disabled naturally from his/her birth time or from accident during the period of this/her lifetime. Person’s has nothing to do against this fate, but unfortunately their family or society does not accept it easily and as a result they have to passed their life with negligence or on sympathy of others Naturally they are treated as liabilities of family or society. But AID believes that if the PWDs are provided with appropriate supports they could be turned into human resources and contributes to our development process significantly. AID started its rehabilitation program for the peoples with disability (PWD) in 1996 and now has been working with the following two projects;

Project No-1           : Promoting Rights and Inclusion through Community Rehabilitation by Liliane-DRRA alliance in Bangladesh

Project No-2    :  Social inclusion of Deaf Children and young people in Bangladesh

The project has been implementing at 3 Unions under Jhenaidah Sadar Upazila  and in Jhenaidah Municipality area with the financial support of Deaf Child Worldwide, UK, through Centre for  Disability in Development(CDD), Dhaka, since2014.
