Kanha (name of the child masked for privacy reasons) is 16 years old and is unable to attend school after 10th grade.
Disabled children are challenged with isolation and exclusion. We are working with such children to provide meaningful friendship, have creative discussions, perform fun activities and channel their time and energy into learning skills of their interest.
Laxmi (name masked for privacy reasons) is 18 years old and is unable to study beyond 8th grade.
Saamarthya, the "Special Child” initiative focusing on abilities rather than disabilities is a commendable approach ensuring no child is left behind. In such settings, where resources may be limited, fostering a mindset that values and nurtures the abilities of every child is crucial for inclusive and equitable development.
Kanika (not the original name of the child for privacy reasons) is 7 years old and studying in 1st grade at a village school of Chhattisgarh. She cannot walk without support of her parents. Every child with special needs has something incredible to offer.
The initiative works on honing their gross motor and cognitive skills through music, stories, arts, and crafts, and socialising with our volunteers by focusing on their abilities instead of disabilities. Astitva Foundation, Chhattisgarh is recognising and building upon their unique strengths that not only address the challenges of isolation and exclusion but also empower disabled children to lead fulfilling lives, build meaningful relationships, and develop valuable skills.
