About us: 

It is a centre that teaches and trains those with special needs to help them integrate with society by gaining the skills necessary for them to survive, and to change some of the undesirable habits which they have acquired due to emotional distress.  It also strives to change the way in which they are perceived by society. 

Our Vision: 

We envision a world where people with disabilities are inspired, respected, engaged in their community, and empowered to achieve their personal best and where families, guardians, and advocates receive the knowledge, resources and support they need.

• Social events that offer opportunities for socializing with other disabled people and with workers through days out and specially arranged activities.
