Special Education for the needy and marginalised
NRI works with various populations like deaf, speech impaired, developmentally disabled and behaviorally challenged children, adults and elderly and their family members. Our agency provides them special education in the context of their individual disability. The purpose of this education is making them as independent as possible so that can lead a meaningful life in the community without being having a stigma of disability. Our agency helps them to receive hearing aid, speech therapy,behavioral therapy, and vocational guidance to earn an adequate living. We do evaluate their weaknesses and strengths based on their developmental, social, emotional, physical, vocational and housing needs. We help in coordination their care and help them and their families to find solutions to their problems in collaboration with other professionals, agencies, individuals and family members. NRI’s special education agenda also focuses on specified issues such as gender discrimination in the preparation for their proper social, emotional and functional rehabilitation in living their lives to the optimum level of their capacities
We have gathered from our detailed survey that still today, in many parts of our Tri-City areas, children, adults, and elderly especially underprivileged do not have any facility or services available to them. Our team collaborates with prominent educational bodies, medical institutions, (Public and Private) like PGIMER, Chandigarh Medical College, various primary and high schools in the area and Rayat Bahra University to develop strategic measures to make meaningful contributions in their lives.We also collaborate with South Asian Behavioral Health and Training Foundation under the leadership of a well-known, Licensed Clinical Neuropsychologist in California, USA, Dr. Harmesh Kumar. He has provided services to needy, disabled populations over the last three decades after he settled in USA. He finished his post-doctoral training for three years under Dr. Ronald Ruff, a world renownedclinical Neuro-psychologist at University of California, San Francisco, USA after he completed his Ph.D. from PGIMER, Department of Neurosurgery under the mentorship of Prof. V. K. Kak, Dr. Dwarka Persad and Dr. Moudgil. Our major focus is to make them independent and functional by promoting their self-respect, dignity and independence.
