Rajasthan Mahila Kalyan Mandal Sanstha VIBHA INC : Organized by: : Supported by : Rajasthan Mahila Kalyan Mandal Sanstha VIBHA INC. "Vishwamitra Ashram” Village: Chachiyawas 1781 SPYGLASS DRIVE # 394, Sikar Road Distt. Ajmer, (Rajasthan) Pin- 305023 AUSTIN TX 78746 (U. S. A.) Ph No. 0145-2794481, Fax No. 0145-2794482 E-mail:[email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Website: http://www.rmkm.org.in Background RMKM started working in the field of rehabilitation of mentally challenged in year 1988 and the Community based rehabilitation project began in year 1998. This project was initiated to link the unreached children with special need focusing on mentally challenged, cerebral palsy, autistic and multiple disabled children and rehabilitate them within the community. Initially 150 children were supported through the home based intervention program and 50 children were supported through the day care center. VIBHA Inc. is supporting the Community Based Rehabilitation Program (“Education & Training Program for Deprived mentally challenged”) since 2003. Since 2003 Rajasthan Mahila Kalyan Mandal Sanstha (RMKM) has tried to reach vulnerable disabled children and adult who are not able to reach the institutional centre for the educational as well as therapeutic intervention. From Community Based Rehabilitation Program (CBR), RMKM is always trying its best to reach to the Unreached. Through CBR program RMKM has observed that there are few milestones which have changed the attitude of community towards disabled people as well as mentally challenged children. The main objective of CBR (community-based rehabilitation) program is to help people with disabilities by establishing community-based programs for social integration, equalization of opportunities, and rehabilitation programs for the disabled. The strength of CBR programs is that it can be made available in rural areas with limited infrastructure, as program leadership is not restricted to professionals in healthcare, education, vocational or social services. Rather, CBR programs involve people with disabilities themselves, their families and communities, as well as appropriate professionals. The community-based rehabilitation (CBR) strategy is an effort to design a system for change - for improving service delivery in order to reach all in need, for providing more equal opportunities and for promoting and protecting the human rights of disabled people. Vibha Inc. USA is supporting our CBR program for urban slum areas of Ajmer district. Our professional experts, CBR workers, speech teacher & physiotherapist are regularly providing their services to the children of slum areas. We are implementing the program from a long time and now we felt the need of taking the program to a next level. Since organization alone cannot bring a larger impact and the community needs to be involved, therefore this year we brought forward three new objectives that are: 1. Early Intervention and Identification of children with special needs. 2. Advocacy on prevention of disability. 3. Advocacy for mainstreaming of Special Children into normal schools. Apart from the ongoing objectives of the project, these objectives will be addressed in order to bring a larger impact and reach of the project. Objectives of the program To build awareness and sensitivity in the society towards CWSNs To integrate special children to special education To mainstream the CWSNs with the society and inclusive education To provide home based remedial program to the severely disabled children who cannot go to the school To motivate the parents to help in bringing improvement in their child To remove the differentiation between the CWSNs and building equalization between them To give the benefit of Right to Education to the CWSNs To aware the society towards the disability and clearing the misconceptions related to disability to provide access to education and training to disabled children specifically Mentally Challenged, Cerebral Palsy, Autistic and Multiple Disabled children and mainstreaming them in society, following are the detailed activities undertaken under each detailed objectives: To enable disabled children and adult to live dignified life Activities to achieve this goal: Process orientation of staff for implementation of project activities and goals Home base remedial education to disabled children as per his/her requirement Parents and sibling training to deal with child with disability at home Regular physiotherapy and speech therapy intervention to minimize the impact of disability on day to day life at early stage through early intervention Linkages with social security schemes To make inclusion possible at government and private school and meaningful involvement of CWSN Activities to achieve this goal: Advocacy Meeting with headmaster and teacher for providing support to disabled children at main stream school To mainstream disabled children in nearby schools, and help school to make conducive environment for inclusion Building supportive environment through peer training at government and private school where CWSN are enrolled Handholding support to the teachers of government schools and the private schools where the children are mainstreamed through CBR workers Modification of curriculum according to the need of CWSN to promote inclusive environment in schools Aware teachers and Headmasters about the existing provisions made by the government for disabled Participation in Gram Sabha to aware and sensitize the community about the needs of disabled in the village Printing of Quarterly News Letter to aware the larger community To improve job placements and retention of adults with disability Activities to achieve this goal: Engagement of employer Orientation meeting about the skills of the disabled Showcasing the profiles and case studies Providing information about the taxation benefits Meeting with other staff to sensitize about the skills and potential of adult with disability and minimize the bulling at job site Providing information through leaflet, brochures and pamphlets Engagement of Parents Orientation of parents about the skills and abilities of adult with disability Building mindset of parents to have realistic expectation from adult with disability and employer Working on punctuality of adult with disability towards the job Training parents and adults with disability for safety issues Counseling of parents and other members to support adult with disability to retain his job To identify high risk infants and toddlers and providing intervention Activities to achieve this goal: Getting details of the infants admitted in the ICU of Government hospitals and keeping their data intact for follow up Identification of high risk children at government hospital and keep track records of these children for intervention Counseling of these parents on the future developmental milestones and sensitizing them to keep a track record of development Meeting with Pediatrics to get the data of high risk children Meeting with Anganwadi worker, ANM, Doctor for early identification of disability Follow up of high risk children Providing therapeutic and special education intervention to the identified children Current Intervention of RMKM Total Beneficiaries of Community Based Rehabilitation Program 104 Vibha Support 213 213 Other Support 109 Total Gender wise data of CBR Program Beneficiaries 74 Males 213 213 Females 139 Total Number of Beneficiaries receiving therapeutical services at CBR Program and Day Care center 138 128 140 120 94 100 80 60 40 20 0 Speech Therapy Physio Therapy Psycho Therapy Age wise breakup of CBR Beneficiaries 113 120 100 80 60 32 40 31 30 20 7 0 0 to 6 7 to 14 15 to 18 18 to 24 25 and above Monitoring of Program and Activities CBR In charge, Senior Program officer and chief functionary regularly conduct the meeting with the CBR worker every month in RMKM Chachiyawas campus.

We decided to adopt this approach because HAQ’s strength lies in working on children and governance and child protection. The focus and strength of this initiative lay in its systems approach to preventing a social evil. The key strategy was to focus on the governance system and work towards the strengthening of the existing state mechanisms, structures and institutions through training and monitoring of their functions, holding them accountable in implementation of the law on child marriage. Simultaneously, the project focused on, sensitizing, supporting and mobilizing the communities, through women’s self-help groups, religious leaders and youth groups to take action to prevent child marriages. Creating and empowering adolescent girls’ groups was yet another important thrust of the project. This approach enabled communities to not just mobilise support from the concerned officials, but also hold them accountable for their inaction.

When we started work in this field, people were unaware of causes of mental retardation, parents used to hide their children from society and they used to feel that these children are useless and are a burden on them and that giving birth to such children is because of their past sins. People didn't have understanding about mental retardation and they were unable to distinguish between mentally ill and mental retardation and these children were known as "Gela" meaning unsound mind. Parents and community members were unaware about the real causes of mental retardation. Pre-primary, primary, secondary, prevocational & vocational children about 15 years of age with mild & moderate retardation coming under prevocational & vocational group. In these group children are trained in prevocational skills such as time, money concept, adaptive skills and vocational trade, which will help them to, became independent. These children are mostly make paper bag, greeting cards, rakhi, candles etc. and all these are seasonal trade and the paper bag market is very limited hence, these children get very less share. Most of special schools are situated in city hence children from rural area are not able to get the facility from school & they are deprived from training and education.

  • Sir Ratan Tata Trust & Navajbai Ratan Tata Trust
    Sir Ratan Tata Trust & Navajbai Ratan Tata Trust Annual Report 2007 - 2008 June 12, 2008 MESSAGE The year 2007-08 saw an amalgamation of the grant initiatives of the Sir Ratan Tata Trust and the Navajbai Ratan Tata Trust, both working towards achieving unified goals. The year also marked the first year of operations under the Strategic Plan 2011, which provides the framework for the Trusts’ grant making operations over the next five year period. Consequently, the combined disbursals of the Trusts during the year touched Rs. 1.11 billion (US $ 27.70 million). Notably, disbursals have been rising appreciably every year, vindicating the Group’s vision of sharing its wealth amidst the disadvantaged sections within India. Disbursals within the Rural Livelihoods & Communities (RLC) portfolio have historically constituted a major proportion vis-à-vis disbursals across other thematic areas. The year under review was no exception, with over 60% of the total grant outlay falling within this portfolio. The Trusts have focused on ‘inclusiveness in growth’ and ‘regaining agricultural relevance’ across grant making efforts within the RLC thematic area, in an attempt to align their goals and ideals with the tenets and national approach of the eleventh Five Year Plan of the nation. The Trusts continued their commitment towards the establishment of the Rs. 2.50 billion cancer hospital in Kolkata, specializing in the detection and treatment of cancer, through an endowment grant of Rs. 250 million, towards building up the corpus of the Tata Medical Centre Trust, responsible for this project. With Rs. 450 million already having being invested by the Trusts towards the Hospital during 2005-06 and 2006-07, their total commitment to date is to the tune of Rs.
