MUMBAI MARATHON 2023
RUN FOR A CHILD WITH SPECIAL NEEDS
Children with disabilities should be provided inclusive schooling without any barriers or discrimination with equal opportunities for learning. This will make the children to realize their full potential. The goal of Amar seva Sangam is that “No child should be denied of schooling experience because of disability”.
41 yrs of Inclusive Education | 5877 Students Educated | Modern Infrastructure | Current Strength 650+ | 585 Students with Disabilities Educated.
Providing inclusive education means, adaptive curriculums and different pedagogy to suit the disability condition of a particular child. This also involves rehabilitation in the form of physiotherapy, special education, speech training, occupational therapy and so on depending upon the challenges the child is facing. Most families in rural areas are unable to get access to this rehabilitation because of the dearth of such rehab professionals, distant communities, the cost involved in getting the services and the livelihood compulsions of the family.
What if the child is not provided inclusive education?
If the child is not provided inclusive education, this will lead to profound exclusion of the child, burden on the family to maintain the child for its life and the resulting poverty.
What Amar Seva Sangam is doing for this purpose?
We have developed a technology leveraged solution to reach the rehabilitation to every child in a family centered approach whereby the rehabilitation becomes a part of the lifestyle of the child and the technology drives the rehabilitation program as a system-based approach. Training the classroom teachers and giving them the awareness about disability and how to teach the education to these children with special needs and challenges is the way forward to make the school education accessible for the children with disabilities.
What is the delivery system?
Inclusive education is offered by us through Siva Saraswathy Vidyalaya inside our organization from Nursery to 12th Standards where more than 59 children with disabilities and 608 other children are given quality education at an affordable cost to support the rural and economically background society. This is a rare opportunity for children with disabilities are thought along with other children who promote amity, adjustment and cooperation among them.
