Service for Persons with Disabilities

Since 1996, TCT has been networking with Government and other voluntary agencies in the district in organising programmes for disabled persons and streamlining assistance to them.

 

From organising awareness programmes, special health camps and government assistance camps for disabled persons, TCT has progressed towards setting up rehabilitation services and organising them into Self-help Groups.

The Comprehensive Rehabilitation and Counselling Centre provides Physiotherapy, surgery assistance and distributes assistive devices to persons with disabilities.

Self-Help Groups for persons with disability are promoted. Leaders of these groups are given leadership training.

Care for disability
The disabled people are formed into self-help groups for discussing their problems amongst themselves and accessing help from the Government and other agencies including TCT.
