Early Childhood
Intervention

Periodical reviews and meetings with parents are conducted to see the improvements or otherwise, so that any course correction required can be effected immediately.

Yearly review is taken to see their readiness to be promoted- either move to an integrated / inclusive school or special school set up, where they can benefit from the school infrastructure and activities or to our Prevocational Training Unit.. Working on these children at an early age helps them to achieve their optimum level of development and they can easily be integrated into the community in education, training, employment, etc. depending on the severity of their disabilities. Otherwise, they lag behind in everything and ultimately become a lifelong burden to the parents.

This also helps the Parents to be more aware of the medical & adaptation needs for these children and by providing them timely interventions, improvements can be achieved.

The greatest challenge we find in this project is the regular attendance of these children, which depends on their health and the health of any other member of the family, which makes it impossible for the mother to drop or pick them up. So we have arranged a transport which can bring them on a regular basis in Sangharsh nagar, asking the parent to visit us at least once a week for any inputs.

Each & every occasion like national, religious etc. are celebrated with them.. Outings to gardens, picnics, cinema and our own Founders day and other awareness programs help them to find a platform to enjoy and also show their talents…

During the pandemic period, these children are the worst affected ones as they are missing out on their therapy, self-help skills training and special education. Even though, teachers and therapists try their best, it is very difficult to work on their attention deficit, concentration, etc., through online. Many times, they simply refuse to look at the mobile. Some of them, we find, could not arrange a mobile / wifi for the child; through some kind donations, we were able to provide them with mobiles.

Each and every parent is waiting anxiously for normalcy to set in, so that their wards can start attending regular classes.
