We were given two plots of land measuring 1,319.477 sq. metres by a Philanthropist. So far, we have only been able to build one Block out of three. A lot of good people from within and outside Nigeria have contributed to this project so far. However we need much more funds to complete the Centre.
How you can help!
1. Help by making a donation. Any funds received will be used to run the centre.
2. Donate furniture, computers, educational aids etc.
3. Partner with us by getting involved. If you have any experience or have received any training in working with handicapped children please volunteer.
4. Visit our centre to find out what you could do to help. Medical Doctors, Specialist Consultants, Physiotherapists, Nurses, Occupational Therapists, Physical Therapists, Special Education Teachers, Special Education Administrators, Speech Therapists, Braille Instructors, Communications Instructors, Music Therapists, Audiologists, Social Workers, Psychologists and Concerned Individuals are needed.
SERVICES
The Centre serves as a base and secretariat for the Project ACCHIEVE where mentally, hearing or visually challenged children are assessed by a team of qualified specialists.
The Centre provides therapeutic facilities and activities.
Vocational training in crafts, music, clay modeling, art, reading etc will be arranged by bringing in resource persons trained in special education for the challenged children. Through such training, individual aptitudes will be identified and parents advised on the child’s vocational pursuit.
Public awareness of the problems encountered by challenged children will be carried out through State Television and radio. Leaflets, activity journals, notepads, handbooks, posters, stickers and billboards will be designed with behaviour change communication messages. Panel discussions will also be arranged on State Television.
Counseling workshops and seminars will be organized at the Centre for parents/guardians of challenged children and educate them about the problems posed by the disabilities and encourage them to seek assistance for such children.
The Centre will help to set up a support group of parents/guardians of challenged children.
Where the Centre is unable to cater for a particular case, it will provide information of other places/institutions to which challenged children can be referred to. It will also offer referrals to such places where possible.
Broad based partnership with International Development Institutes will be sought for the Project.
