In its inception in 1992, AABRAR began a bicycle training program for amputees to improve mobility and increase their independence, enabling them to travel to and work from, and save on transportations costs. Since then, AABRAR has expanded its activities to offer a range of services to vulnerable people, designing special programs for women and children to address their needs. AABRAR's programs include physiotherapy (center based and community based for both males and females) and health care, bicycle training, vocational training, numeracy and literacy classes, mine awareness, HIV /AIDS awareness, drug awareness and health education training, and various sporting activities. AABRAR also works in the area of social development, helping to raise awareness of the rights of disabled people within Afghanistan and dispel negative attitudes towards disability. AABRAR is concerned with the physical rehabilitation and socio- economic integration of disabled people into the community, and has implemented a range of activities to help people achieve mobility, become economically empowered, increase self- confidence, and develop the skills needed to live an independent life. AABRAR's direct beneficiaries are predominately disabled people; the majority of which are amputees as a result of land -mine accidents. Others suffer from paraplegia, polio, cerebral palsy, and clubfoot. By only focusing on certain groups such as `disabled people', other vulnerable groups often fall through the cracks andremain unassisted by NGO's. AABRAR has therefore recently widened its beneficiary classification to include people from other vulnerable groups such as widows, orphans, unemployed people, ex- combatants, and streetworking children, so as to reach those people most in need of assistance. Since its inception in 1992, AABRAR has helped over 45,000 people recoverphysically and emotionally from their injuries and increased their socio- economic participation indifferent programs. AABRAR has centers in Kabul andJalalabad and recently has successfully opened offices in Laghman, Kunar, Nurestan, Paktika and Ghazni and is seeking toexpand its programs to all major cities in Afghanistan. AABRAR is a registered member of the Islamic Government ofAfghanistan ( with ministry of economy), Agency Coordinating Body for Afghan Relief (ACBAR), aregistered member of Afghan NGO Coordination Bureau (ANCB), a Member of theSteering Committee of the Afghan Campaign to Ban Landmines (ACBL), and a Member of theAfghan Paralympics Committee (APC).
