Appeal

Countless individuals who live with disabilities find themselves overlooked and marginalized, trapped in a cycle of poverty and despair. In India, over 25 million people face these challenges, often hindered by a lack of equal educational and employment opportunities.

For 52 years, ADAPT has provided vital services, assessment, screening, inclusive education, therapy, counseling, vocational training, skills development for employment, awareness building. We don’t just offer support; we nurture aspirations, cultivate skills, and foster socio-emotional development. Yet, the reality is that the annual cost of these life-changing services is approximately Rs. 2,00,000 per beneficiary, a sum far beyond the reach of most families we serve, many of whom come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

That’s where you come in. The funds raised through the TMM will be instrumental in sustaining this crucial work. Your generosity will directly support children and youth living with disabilities at our centers in Bandra, Colaba, Chembur, and Dharavi. With your help, we can empower them through education, provide them with essential health services, and create a ripple effect that will awaken the community to the extraordinary potential of these individuals.

Together, we can create a world where each person is valued and cherished.

ImpactA major outcome was the outreach and spread of services. This led to decentralization. ADAPT’s model in Mumbai began to replicated across the country. A profusion of regionally based and autonomous Societies grew. Today, no one is questioning whether they can be educated or not but how they should go about it in mainstream regular schools!
Community training programmes for parents helped empower them to take ownership for the inclusion of their children in regular schools, helping to make the system more cost-effective, and they became a critical cadre of people created within the community to push for inclusive education.
This has supported towards betterment of 20 beneficiaries.
