OUR INITIATIVE
The government of India has launched a number of schemes for the welfare of people with disability in last ve decades. Many government schemes, such as travel concessions, scholarships, disability pension, bank loans for self-employment, and so on.

Another activity that facilitated attitude change was an initiative taken by the children with disability to collect public donations for the relief of the victims. Help to build confidence in the disabled person by informing them fully on what to expect and what is available to them.
